Are snakehead fish a dangerous invasive species in the USA? Invasive species, whether they are animals, fish or plants, are causing a huge problem around the world. An invasive species can cause huge disruptions to fragile, local ecosystems, as they often have no natural predators in their new habitat, take over territory and food sources required by indigenous animals for survival and sometimes even destroy terrain.
The northern snakehead is native to Asia and is one of 29 snakehead species. It made its national news debut in 2002, after an angler at a pond behind a strip mall in Crofton, Maryland, caught a long, skinny fish, about 18 inches from end to end, that neither he nor his fishing buddy recognized.wo years later, northern snakeheads fulfilled biologistsâ worst fear and showed up in the Potomac River. Experts worried that snakeheads in the Potomac, by eating other fish or out-competing them for food, could drive down numbers of more desirable species, such as shad or largemouth bass.
