2 Any species capable of reproducing, that is not native to an ecosystem.

3 Water that is pumped into large cargo ships to balance the boat. Often pumped out into areas far from where it was from.

4 Over 200 known invasive species thought to cause serious problems.

5 Introduced via ballast water. Outcompetes native filter feeders. Covers benthic organisms & submerged structures.

6 Introduced to parks & zoos, are now wild & devastating to SAVs.

7 Introduced for fur trading. Now eating SAVs & ruining wetlands w/ digging. Click Here!

8 Outcompetes native whelks: voracious eaters, fast reproduction rate, no natural predators. Click Here!
