I live in New Zealand and have my BAS in biodiversity management. If we did not control our invasive species we would not only lose (more) native animal species we would lose much more of our native flora as well. Are you suggesting we simply allow endanger species (flora and fauna) to go extinct? <br /><br />We have already interfered (that's how it started) and are now trying (when we can) to fix some of the damage that our past interference has caused - often very successfully. <br /><br />Your logic seems very dry and theory based. Have you ever done field work and seen the damage caused by invasive species? <br /><br />I agree that very often we over step our mark and should allow natural process to take place. I do not agree however that we should not try to stop human induced extinctions when we can. If we allow non-native species to invade naive habitats we not only put other species at risk we also put our selfs, our economy and organic agriculture at risk.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07628676903659154217noreply@blogger.com
