10 Extinction Causes  Causes: 1.Habitat destruction (primary cause) 2.Poaching 3.Pollution 4.Exotic species  discuss later in class

12 Exotic/Introduced/Invasive species Advantages: Pollination Food – Butterflies feeding on non-native plants Reforestation – Exotic trees restore forest to help bring back native species Endangered

13 Examples of Exotic Species that were harmful Zebra Mussel Kudzu Nutria Rat River Monster & Piranas
