Invasive Species Threats and Opportunities

Invasive Species Threats and Opportunities: A Primer for Oregon Policymakers

The consequences of letting invasive species establish in Oregon are similar to letting dominoes fall. Unchecked, invasive species can cause irreversible impacts on the people, places, and economies of the state.

This publication was developed through a collaborative effort of the members of the Oregon Invasive Species Council to provide a briefing on selected serious threats from invasive species and opportunities to address these issues that span jurisdictions in Oregon.
