As agencies control invasive species to protect diversity, some worry about side effects
Wyoming Public Radio
August 13th, 2013
An interesting article highlighting some of the challenges to restoration.
"Each year, millions of dollars are spent controlling invasive species in Wyoming. Just about every agency you can think of is involved – from local weed and pest districts, to the Department of Game and Fish, and even the Bureau of Land Management. Many people see their efforts as an important way to protect Wyoming’s diversity. But others worry that removing invasives could sometimes do more harm than good."
