There's a huge difference between animals that migrate to an area naturally and animals introduced to an area by mankind's actions. Most animals that migrate already reside in areas they find habitable, and have been there for long enough to the local fauna to adapt to their presence.
Things introduced through human actions normally wouldn't be able to migrate to areas that they now inhabit through careless actions such as dumping ballast water, and improper keeping of livestock to name a few, and with no predators to keep the newly introduced to the area species in check they reproduce in mass numbers and out-compete native species for food and resources.
If you can't understand this then stop spreading your incorrect and non-factually based opinions.

I am not a creationist. The christian god is a false god. I believe in the hypothesis that humans have a common ancestor with apes, but recognize that "evolution" as a science is very weak.
I also believe that it is good to eradicate destructive, invasive species.

That’s wrong. Humans ARE apes. We have a common ancestor with chimpanzees six million years ago.

The fuck? No it isn’t. There’s been many evolutionary experiments and others are ongoing. Testing whether or not allele frequencies change over generations in any particular population is very easy.

Not the guy you were talking to, but this made me think. Will the advancements in cloning make evolution a genuinely testable science? Like putting identical populations of rats in identical situations and observing how the rats trend genetically
