Takeaways:
- Invasivorism was coined by conservation biologist Joe Roman 20 years ago, referring to eating invasive species out of existence.
- Roman calls his work an important step forward and key to incorporating invasivorism into conservation policies and it has led to more practical ideas about how harvesting can work.
- Studies have shown that while prevention is the best way to keep invasive species out of the ecosystem, if that fails harvest incentives can have a real potential.
