| Impact Description | The introductions of Potamopyrgus antipodarum in Yellowstone National Park could threaten the recreational resources used at the park, such as the recreational fishing industry and the tourism driven by the native wildlife. If P. antipodarum has adverse impacts on food web interactions in invaded ecosystems (see above), it is possible that certain recreationally or commercially valuable species such as rainbow trout and brown trout could be negatively impacted at high snail densities. |
