Abstract

In the United States of America the Federal Fish and Wildlife Service estimate that there are approximately 6,300 non-native invasive plants and animals which pose a threat to wildlife. This chapter describes one of these species which has had a profound impact on coastal tidal areas in many parts of the world. It highlights some of the questions posed for wildlife conservation managers and amenity interests.
