🐌 Today's #InvasiveAlienSpecies is Cipangopaludina chinensis, the Chinese Mystery Snail.
🟢 It can outcompete many native snails, alter water quality and algae diversity, and act as a potential parasite host.
⚪ There are also concerns about it clogging water pipes and attacking fish eggs.

🦫 The next #InvasiveAlienSpecies of Union concern is the Castor canadensis, or the American Beaver.
🌿 It directly competes with the native European beaver, occupying the same ecological niche.
🟤 With its higher reproduction rate, it increases the risk of extinction for the native beaver species.
