What are invasive species and why should I be concerned about them?
Invasive species can include plants, animals or insects. They are species that have been introduced by humans or by other means to a location where they did not previously occur naturally. Invasive species can displace native species, and have the potential to significantly alter local ecosystems. Examples of invasive species that can be found in Wilsonville include: Himalayan blackberry, English ivy, nutria, and European starlings.
