I'll give you some facts about an invasive species, you tell me what it is. For example, What fish, native to the Indo-Pacific, that's also called firefish, turkeyfish, tastyfish, or butterfly-cod, is quite lovely but considered a recent (90s) and significant invasive species (eating up everything they can fit in their mouths) in the west Atlantic, Caribbean Sea and Mediterranean Sea?

You would answer Lionfish

1. Cane toads were brought to what country in 1935 to control the cane beetle population that was destroying cane sugar crops?
2. What specific kind of snake is top of the food chain in the Everglades? FL made it legal to kill them (humanely?) and even holds contests for most and longest captured/killed?
3. What is the large, herbivorous, semiaquatic rodent living comfortably around New Orleans? Females give birth to litters of up to 14 then go back into heat two days later!
4. What bird was brought to the US by Shakespeare enthusiasts in the 1890s and are one of the most successful foraging birds in the country, with a population of about 200 million?
5. This animal is native to North America and is sorta featured in a Mark Twain short story (not specifically named but competes in the ongoing contest based on the story) but is considered invasive in Central and South America, western Europe, and East Asia.
6. A beetle is believed to carry/spread a sac fungi (Ascomycota) that kills certain trees. It was introduced to the US in 1928 and contained to the NY area - until 1941 when focus on the war allowed it to spread greatly. What's this called?
