A Keystone species is a certain species that other organisms depend on, and if removed, won’t
be very good.
Agoutis are a Keystone species of the Tropical Rainforests because Brazil Nut Trees depend on
agoutis for their strong and sharp teeth to open their hard seed pods and the dispersal of their
seeds.
If the Agoutis didn’t exist, then nobody could break and get rid of the Brazil Nut Trees’ nuts.
The meaning of Invasive species is the plants or animals that are non-native to an Ecosystem.
A Wild Boar can be a Invasive species, and a European Rabbit too.
The Wild Boar got introduced to some of the countries. And the European Rabbit somehow got
to every continent except Antarctica and Asia.
The Wild Boar has been threatening to some animals there, and has been spreading diseases.
The European Rabbit isn’t always that much of a big deal if there aren't a lot around, but it’s not
good when there is a lot in one place.
