Will a national weed listing help control buffel grass? Traditional owners and scientists want buffel grass recognised as a Weed of National Significance, but the cattle industry opposes the move because it relies on the species for fodder. #invasive #species

Can chilis bring the heat in self-defense? A researcher explores whether pepper plants that lost avian seed dispersers boost heat to avoid being eaten by mammals.

Over the past 80 years, the #invasive brown tree snake has eradicated most of Guam’s bird population, disrupting seed dispersal. Researchers suggest that without the need to attract bird dispersers, plants can invest more in defense - potentially making Guam’s peppers spicier 🌶️

Bright green, spade-shaped leaves with slightly wavy edges and patterns traced with light green emerge from an area of ground covered in dry stems and dead grasses.

Oof, not everything coming up green is good! In today’s photo we have Italian Arum (Arum italicum), a very #invasive plant & a good illustration to close out #Virginia Invasive Species Awareness Week.

@blueridgeprism.bsky.social has listed this species in the “10 Least Wanted” for VA.

Collateral damage: Japanese beetle traps snare nature’s helpers Traps designed to combat an invasive species also kill bees. A study led by an UdeM undergraduate reveals the hidden costs of a seemingly harmless solution.

#ECOLOGY A single pheronome trap can catch up to 6,000 #invasive Japanese beetles a week — but a lot of pollinators get caught, too. Is it time to rethink the process?

It's National #Invasive Species Awareness Week!

Did you know #cats are among the world's most harmful invasive species? Cats have contributed to the extinction of 63 species and kill an estimated 2.4 BILLION birds in the U.S. every year.

Help protect cats and #wildlife by keeping #CatsIndoors.

I recently got to travel through the finger lakes in New York and I couldn’t simply walk past the non-native and #invasive species I saw. You’ll have to excuse the blurriness though.

Ring-necked Pheasants, like this female, were introduced to North America from Asia in 1773 in Oregon, then Washington in 1883, and California in 1889. More were added eastward once it was seen that populations did well. Now they are found across much of the USA. #bird #nature #invasive #photography

☕ Coffee is from Africa, Arabica, but we grow it most in South America (50% of global) and Asia.

🍫 Cocoa is from South America but we grow it most in Africa (70% of global production).

Why? Because humans are the only #invasive #pathogen species on Earth and only know how destroy ecosystems.
