Invasive Species (Age 11 to 14)

This resource from Arkive allows students to investigate the impacts that invasive species have on the environment, the effects that they have on native species and habitats, and the characteristics that make certain species good invaders. The activity looks at the different ways in which invasive species can potentially be controlled and examines an example of successful invasive species management on Barrow Island, Australia.
