Invasive species are non-native animals or plants that spread quickly and can harm native species, ecosystems, or people.
They can compete with native species for food and space, spread diseases, and change natural ecosystems.
Examples in Europe: red-eared slider, raccoon, ring-necked parakeet and Asian hornet.
