There are amphibian species which are in a dynamic of expansion in certain territories and are likely to be qualified as invasive alien species. And yet, the number of invasive reptiles and amphibians is increasing, facilitated by the persistently high globalization of human activities. The most common pathway for invasive reptiles and amphibians is the often-illegal trade of exotic snakes and frogs as pets. Another common pathway is release for biological control, where a new species is introduced in an attempt to control a pest species. Invasive amphibians and reptiles can harm the natural environment or adversely affect people's health, native ecosystems and the local economy if they are not detected early, identified and managed.
