Invasive species can have negative impacts on natural habitats by outcompeting native species for resources such as food and habitat, disrupting ecosystem processes, altering the balance of species interactions, and contributing to the decline or extinction of native species. They can also introduce new diseases, parasites, or predators that native species are not adapted to, leading to further population declines. Additionally, invasive species can lead to habitat degradation, loss of biodiversity, and changes in ecosystem structure and function.
