    One case of an invasive species disturbing native species is the common green iguana invading the Grand Cayman blue iguana's habitat. The blue iguana is endangered as a result of the green iguana. Rats also injure its hatchlings and threatened by feral cats and roaming dogs. It's sad to see the decline of a beautiful lizard. Another instance is the American crocodile in the Cuban croc habitat. Cuban crocs are decreasing in population due to breeding with American crocs and hunting by humans. Its restricted habitat makes it very vulnerable

    “Invasive species” is a colonial social-economic construct. The concept that a species “doesn’t below” or is “unnatural” or “outcompeting” isn’t objective. That it depends on a species being “non native” (also a bullshjt term) adds to the flimsiness of it all. One can easily make a case that many species which have been in an area since before the magical threshold of 1491 “outcompete” others - solidago and pinus strobus to name but two in this region. It’s time we move beyond this tired rhetoric and judgement about who is good and bad in an ecosystem and toward a place of recognizing the sovereignty of all species and their role as responses to conditions. Invasion biology comes into existence because we see ecosystems resource-centrically. When relating to our ecosystems without resource value judgements the concept of invasiveness ceases to exist.
