As part of Invasive Species Week 2026, a local environmental group in North Clare is inviting the public to learn more about one of Ireland's most damaging invasive plants and the efforts being made to restore a valuable local habitat.  The Restore Ballymacraven River Association has spent the past three years removing Cherry Laurel from the Ballymacraven River corridor near Ennistymon and replacing it with thousands of native Irish trees.   This weekend, the group is hosting an Information and Volunteer Day to highlight the importance of invasive species management and community-led environmental restoration.   Joining Alan Morrissey to tell us more about the event, the work being carried out along the river, and how local people can get involved was Cía McElveen Walsh, Community Engagement Officer with the Restore Ballymacraven River Association.

In much of the world, rabbits are seen as harmless, fluffy pets. But in Australia, they're an economic and environmental disaster. Introduced for sport hunting by British settlers in the mid-19th century, rabbits faced no natural predators. As a result, their population exploded across the continent within decades. Despite mass eradication campaigns, hundreds of millions of rabbits remain today, devastating the landscape and tormenting Australian farmers. FRANCE 24's Grégory Plesse and Quentin Théron report.

How common or rare are species in an ecosystem? The answer to this might seem simple, but as with everything in nature, it is not. This question can even complicate how we think of habitat conservation and restoration. When we refine and implement scientific tools like species diversity indices, we need to make sure we are applying them correctly. Join me and Dr. Robert Warren as we explore measures of species diversity, the issues with improper use of these tools, and what that can mean in the context of invasive species and restoration.

Griff Jenkins walks through the bizarre origin and explosive growth of Colombia's “cocaine hippos,” originally brought in by Pablo Escobar and now numbering in the hundreds with no natural predators and growing ecological and human danger as they overrun rivers and farmland. He explains Colombia's failed attempts to control the population, including a controversial culling plan that sparked backlash, and highlights a wild new proposal from the son of an Indian billionaire to relocate dozens of hippos to a wildlife refuge in India at a staggering multi-billion-dollar cost due to logistics and transport challenges. The conversation mixes humor and disbelief over the scale of the problem, the political fallout of earlier handling decisions, and the sheer absurdity of trying to “move” one of the world's most dangerous invasive species.

What makes an invasive plant species invasive? A lot of effort goes in to trying to understand the ecological and evolutionary underpinnings of invasive species. Multiple hypotheses have been put forward such as the novel weapons hypothesis and allelopathy, but what do the data tell us about these concepts? The answer is as nuanced as it is interesting. Join me and Dr. Robert Colautti as we explore novel weapons and allelopathy through the lens of purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) and garlic mustard (Alliaria petiolata).

The Brown Tree Snake (Boiga irregularis) has wreaked ecological havoc on Guam since its accidental release in the years following WWII, playing a major role in the extinction of endemic bird species and causing trophic cascades that have rewired how the island's forests function. But how did a population of millions come from just a handful of snakes? And how does this species continue to thrive after eliminating so much of its prey base? A soon-to-be-released study looked into the genome of this invasive species and uncovered some intriguing possibilities. In this episode, the guys welcome their special guest, Dr. Christopher Osborne, to discuss his study and its implications for species management.This episode was recorded on March 15, 2026 at Rollin T. Grant Gulf Wilderness Park in Lockport, NY, a place Bill has (jokingly) called “the armpit of WNY” despite its deep history and the fact that he'll absolutely encourage you to check it out.Episode Notes and LinksIn the beginning of the episode, Steve said we would definitely, 100%, without doubt, cover something called Lewontin's paradox. Well, we skipped it! The main idea behind the paradox is that genetic variation varies little among species, but population size varies massively. We would expect large populations to have a lot of genetic diversity, but we often find that they don't. Population size doesn't always scale with genetic diversity.

In Western Pennsylvania, the Allegheny County board of health is looking at how it can reduce the impacts of fracking. It formed a subcommittee on fracking last year, and the committee presented their plans to the full board of health earlier this month. State environmental regulators recently held a hearing for an air permit for Shell’s plant in Beaver County. The State Department of Conservation and Natural Resources has announced they'll cover the costs for Pennsylvanians to remove invasive trees and shrubs and replace them with native species for the second year in a row. And a deep dive: A silent fly arrived on our shores about 250 years ago, around the same time Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia. How one of the country’s first invasive species spurred suspicions of biological warfare, threatened the new nation’s economy, and inspired citizen science.

Invasive species—ranging from plants and animals to insects—are a growing global threat, causing an estimated $400 billion in economic damage each year. Beyond the financial toll, they wreak havoc on native ecosystems, contributing to the decline of biodiversity and widespread agricultural losses. To better understand which invasive species have entered Slovakia, the extent of the damage they've caused, and what measures can be taken to prevent their spread, RSI spoke with two experts from the Slovak Academy of Sciences: botanist Barbora Šingliarová and entomologist Marek Semmelbauer.
