Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
Jane Drake and Ann Love's ALIEN INVADERS: SPECIES THAT THREATEN OUR WORLD discusses invasive species, from killer toads to brown tree snakes, using the Great Lakes and Lake Victoria regions as examples of how invaders impact ecosystems and change or destroy biodiversity. Over fifty pages pair eye-catching color drawings with examples of species invasion, covering common scenarios and how they happened, making for a top pick for elementary-level students.
