In the United States alone, the annual biodiversity loss caused by invasive species amounts to 120 billion U.
Now, thanks to a new collaborative study, we have a better understanding of how invasive species gradually affect the local food web
"This study provides new details on how invasive lake trout affects the entire lake food web," said Charles Wainright, an American fish and wildlife fish biologist, who recently completed his study at the University of Michigan Biology Station.
This study was recently published in the well-known "Proceedings of The National Academy of Sciences" journal.
The research team found that lake trout forced local fish to feed on sub-optimal food sources in different habitats, thereby disrupting the food web and ultimately leading to local predators, a threatened species protected by the U.

Studies also show that the food web effect of lake trout invasion is particularly obvious, because the number of lake trout increases rapidly 25 to 50 years after colonization
This study provides more evidence for the impact of invasive species on western Montana
"This is a real collaborative effort," said FLBS Lake ecologist Shawn Devlin
The results of this study emphasize the importance of protecting the entire landscape from biological invasion
