For almost a decade, the Washington Sea Grant Crab Team has been surveilling the advance of the invasive European green crab. In 2015, the team was formed to engage citizen scientists in a search for the first signs of an invasion into Puget Sound, with the first documented trap of a green crab taking place a year later in August 2016. They have now been found in more than 30 trapping sites. A new story in Salish Sea Currents features tracking efforts tracking efforts and research into the in...| fish.uw.edu

European Fallow deer have walked Sidney Island, BC, since at least the 1960s, ferried over – best we can tell – by people keen to hunt them. This is not an original story.

Non-native species introduced mainly via increasing trade of goods and services have huge economic, health, and environmental costs. These ‘biological invasions’ involve the intentional or unintentional transport and release of species beyond their native biogeographical ranges, facilitating their potential spread. Over the last few decades, invasive species have incurred an average cost of at least […]| ConservationBytes.com

The Black Summer bushfires of 2019–2020 that razed more than half of the landscape on Kangaroo Island in South Australia left an indelible mark on the island’s unique native biodiversity, which is still struggling to recover. However, one big bonus for the environment’s recovery is the likely eradication of feral pigs (Sus scrofa). Invasive feral pigs causeContinue reading "Hitting the target for eradicating feral pigs helps Kangaroo Island recovery"| Global Ecology @ Flinders

Can introduced populations be considered "insurance populations" that can be used in a repopulation effort if anything happens to the original wild population? If so, should they be protected?

Wintertime, the down time for a vegetable farmer without a greenhouse, finds me in the forest repairing barbed-wire fences. While there, I meander off with my trusty loppers and cut poison ivy vines at the base of the trees they are snaking up. The revelation that this obnoxious plant did not thrive as a woodland plant unless its leaves have access to sunshine surprised me. I happily relieve our forests of this rash-producing pest by simply snipping it off at ground level while taking a walk ...| The Barefoot Farmer
