Invasive Animal Species

Invasive species like foxes, rabbits, and Burmese pythons threaten native wildlife and ecosystems, often leading to extinction. The book explores how these animals were introduced—accidentally or intentionally for purposes such as pest control or pets—and highlights the impact on habitats. It also discusses how native species like raccoons and squirrels have adapted to urban environments. Students are encouraged to research local invasive species and engage in efforts to protect their natural habitats from these ecological threats.
