Alien Species : Fitting In
Author: Mark Derr
I choose this article to review because it has good content. In this article I can learn something new about the alien species in our environment. I believe that in this world have so many kind of species whereas plant or animal. From this diversity, probably many kind of them are unfamiliar known by us.
This article tells us about alien species that can never be acceptable in a natural ecosystem. This is an assumption a number of scientist. For example, while applauding efforts to banish harmful organism like the brown tree snakes that have destroyed most of Guam’s native species of forest birds, or the star thistle (a prickly weed that is toxic to horses, and has invaded much of the West) they say that portraying introduced species as inherently bad is an unscientific approach. In quotation, Dr. Michael Rozenzweig said that distinction between exotic and native species are artificial, in fact only a small percentage of alien species cause problem in their new habitats.
The writer message’s want to tell us the reality about the alien species. Author wants to invite all of us to keep the environment and the habitat of alien species still in natural. Furthermore, this will make the world ecosystem, called biosfer keep in balance.
I think it is a good news. I had just known about the fact after reading this article. Excellent!
