When exotic species are introduced what happens to the species that are already there?
Sometimes nothing will happen but many times, the ones that are there will be pushed out and replaced. The balance will be upset and others then will also be affected. You could be left with almost nothing.
This is one reason why removing a species can have an unwanted effect, too. Many have wondered if we should kill all the mosquitoes that carry certain diseases. It sounds like a good idea but maybe not. These species that have lived together for a long time have things worked out between themselves. Messing with or removing one would be like removing a part of a tower and the whole thing could collapse.

What is introduced species and what types of damage can it cause?
Introduced species, also known as non-native or exotic species, are organisms that are brought into a new habitat where they do not naturally occur. They can cause significant ecological damage by outcompeting native species for resources, disrupting food webs, and altering habitats. Additionally, introduced species can introduce diseases and parasites that native species are not equipped to handle. This can lead to declines or extinctions of local wildlife and a loss of biodiversity.
Can an exotic species purposely be introduced to a new haitat?
Yes, an exotic species can be purposely introduced to a new habitat for various reasons, such as agriculture, pest control, or ornamental purposes. However, this practice can lead to unintended ecological consequences, including competition with native species, disruption of local ecosystems, and potential extinction of indigenous flora and fauna. Therefore, such introductions should be carefully assessed and regulated to minimize negative impacts.

Species introduced to new geographic locations?
When species are introduced to new locations where they are not native, they are termed as "introduced species" or "invasive species." These introductions can disrupt ecosystems, outcompete native species, and impact local biodiversity. Examples include the cane toad in Australia and the zebra mussel in North America.
Definition of exotic species?
An exotic species is a plant or animal species that is not native to a specific region but has been introduced there, often by human activity. These species can disrupt local ecosystems, outcompete native species, and cause harm to biodiversity.
Organisms that were brought by humans from one part of the world to another are examples of?
Invasive species. These are introduced species that disrupt the ecosystem they were introduced to, often outcompeting native species and causing harm to the environment.
What are exotic species and how do do they endanger other species?
a species that has been introduced from another geographic region to an area outside its natural range
Can you keep a meerkat in QLD Australia?
No. Australia has very strict laws about the introduction of exotic species which could cause damage to the environment and prey on native fauna. Too much damage has already been done by species that were introduced in the colonial years.

What are exotic species and how are they harmful to your environment?
Exotic species are simply those that do not belong in your particular habitat. They are harmful because when they are introduced into your habitat they compete with some native species and threaten to make it extinct. Such is happening with the European starling and many native North America birds.
