Terrestrial (land-dwelling) Invasive Vertebrates are non-native members of the subphylum Vertebrata (animals with a backbone) who spend the majority of their lives on land. While terrestrial vertebrates form a minor proportion of all invasive species, their impacts are often disproportionately high. Terrestrial invasive vertebrates primarily include reptiles, birds, and mammals.
