Reminds me of the American Acclimatization Society. Back in the 1800s some people thought it was nice to bring European flora and fauna over to America. One of the results is a population of hundreds of millions of starlings. For its role in the decline of local native species and the damages to agriculture, the European starling has been included in the IUCN List of the world's 100 worst invasive species.
