It seems there is a snake that has been causing million of dollars in damage in Guam and apparently mice can kill these snakes. I hope there are plenty of natural enemies of the mice roaming the island as I would think a mouse infestation could be as bad or worse than the snakes. I do believe there is a serious problem with rodents in Australian after the animals were introduced into that country. I can't remember if it was an intentional act or if the mice and rats got to Australia via the stowaway route aboard ships. In either case the rodents have been responsible for almost devastating large parts of the Island continent.
There are many examples of animal and plant life being introduced, again either intentional or not, to an area with great detrimental effects. Kudzu is an example of plant life in this area that has caused serious problems.
