OREANDA-NEWS The rapid spread of invasive nutria in Germany is endangering the local ecosystem. The Bild newspaper reports on an unusual problem with reference to data from the German Hunting Union (DJV).
"These animals destroy reed beds and thereby endanger the existence of many species of birds, fish and amphibians. In addition, they undermine dams, which negatively affects flood protection," the article says.
It is noted that hunters compare the scale of the spread of nutria with the "invasion". Against this background, the scale of nutria hunting has increased dramatically.
Earlier, residents of Georgia, USA, were urged to fight an invasive species of lizards — the Argentine giant tegu. Recently, 20 dangerous individuals have been spotted in the state.
