Cane toads are highly toxic to native predators, leading to declines in native predator populations. Their spread is accelerated by wetter conditions in some areas due to climate change, enabling them to move further into new territories.

Asian carp outcompete native fish for food and habitat, leading to declines in native fish populations. Changes in river temperature and flow due to climate change can enhance their ability to invade new areas by affecting spawning and survival rates.

European starlings compete with native birds for nest sites and food, which can lead to declines in native bird populations. Milder winters and longer breeding seasons due to climate change can aid their survival and reproduction rates.

Emerald ash borers kill ash trees by feeding on the inner bark, disrupting water and nutrient transport. A warming climate may speed up their lifecycle and expand their range, leading to more severe infestations.

Lionfish are predators that consume large quantities of native fish, leading to declines in reef health and fish populations. Climate change-induced warmer ocean temperatures expand their suitable habitat range, exacerbating their invasiveness.

Burmese pythons prey on a wide range of mammals and birds, reducing native species populations. Warmer temperatures from climate change can facilitate their range expansion within subtropical and tropical habitats.

Kudzu smothers and kills other plants by blocking sunlight, leads to soil erosion and loss of native plant species. Climate change extends its growing season and range northward due to increased CO2 levels and warmer temperatures.
