UES 150 Fall 2020

Keeping on the topic of invasive species, go back to the National Geographic article "Alien Invaders” from last week or linked below. Pick one of the species listed and write a 500 - 750 word description (click "add new discussion”) of your species. The description needs to include:

1.  Its native range
2. Where it has invaded
3. Description of characteristics that make it a successful invasive (numerous seeds, no predator, excellent hunter, etc.)
4. Disruption to native species
5. Any attempts to eradicate it

You will need to do outside research to fully answer these questions. Read your classmates' descriptions and respond to at least one. In your response, compare their species to the one you picked. If you picked the same, simply discuss similarities in your findings.
