Climate change is making it easier for invasive species to succeed

It's around lunchtime for us, but for ants it's a constant quest for meals. Simple methods that prevent prolific new arrivals getting to potential food, whether that's in a tree or a bin, are an essential part of frontline responses.
Come work at #VirginiaTech! The Department of Fish & Wildlife Conservation invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant or Associate Professor of Wildlife Extension. And yes, #invasivespecies are part of the job description! 🐗🐟

Prompting humans to kill indiscriminately only succeeds in further desensitizing us as a species.
#Nature has its own machinations and humans are the true invasive species.

Expert consensus helped identify priority threats for 22 species of freshwater fish in the #WetTropics
The most severe #threats were:
- #InvasiveSpecies
- #climate-driven changes to temperature and hydrology
- habitat and water quality degradation &
- hybridisation with translocated native fishes

🌿 Aquatic plants aren’t just “weeds”..they’re essential to healthy lakes! Native plants stabilize sediments, absorb nutrients, reduce erosion, provide habitat & deter #invasivespecies.
A healthy lake isn’t a swimming pool. Sometimes plants are a sign it’s working.💧🌱

Raccoons need BIG homes for their babies!
A new study found 14 natal dens of invasive raccoons in W Poland - 12 in tree cavities, usually in the largest trees around.
Listening for cubs was a remarkably effective way to find them!👂
Plenty Swollen River-Mussel (Unio tumidus) in River Little Ouse at Brandon Bank, doubtless assisting alien #invasivespecies, European Bitterling (Rhodeus amarus) which inserts eggs & sperm down siphons to hatch in safety of mussel. Also lots Common River-Snail (Viviparus viviparus). #molluscmonday
Also under Little Ouse-Brandon Bank Iron Bridge, impressive communal web of Grey Cross Spiders (Larinioides sclopetarius). Delighted by tiny Hydra hitching ride on Ear Pond-Snail (Radix auricularia). Sadly, plenty holes of alien #invasivespecies Signal Crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus). #invert
They are attractive bugs, these spotted lantern flies #invasivespecies but this city (West Haven, CT) needs to remove their favored host, another invasive, The Tree of Heaven. This mother tree spawned numerous seedlings that are growing all along the beach, with lantern flies on all of them
Visiting my aunt and was horrified to see #invasivespecies Tree of Heaven in public parks like this one in West Haven (Sea Bluff Beach) loaded with another invasive spotted lantern flies. The Tree of Heaven seedlings from this mama tree were all along the beachfront and all had SLF
