520 0 _a"For 80 years, giant American amphibians have been spreading through tropical Australia, resulting in the death of millions of native animals. Rick Shine and his research team set out to understand that invasion and its impacts, and to develop new ways of protecting endangered wildlife from the tide of toads. In the process, Shine's work revealed that biological invasions can stimulate rapid evolutionary change, and that understanding your enemy is the essential first step in combatting its deadly effects"--Provided by publisher.
