ponds. Many carp then escaped into the Mississippi River. They have gradually taken over the resources of
paddlefish in the river. Their population have grown so rapidly that paddlefish don't have enough food and are
dying out.

beautiful purple flowers. Since then, the plant has spread very quickly and covered Lake Victoria, the largest lake
in Africa. Water hyacinth blocks the flow of lake water and creates homes for mosquitoes and insects.

plants and animals to a new place.
