It contains no incentives for states or districts to provide high-quality world languages programs and actually drops the Foreign Language Assistance program, which has helped close the achievement gap for non-native English speakers -- the fastest growing demographic in our schools.
At least in a demographic sense, introgression of non-native alleles cannot be objectively characterized as against the best interests of wild salamanders.
However, this may be less useful in metropolitan areas that generally have the lower survey response rates associated with a younger demographic, higher migrant populations, and therefore more non-native speakers, and greater deprivation, associated with lower literacy levels.
Control of non-native species is a major conservation and restoration challenge, as a species' demographic resilience and connectivity within networks can limit the ability of suppression or eradication efforts to influence populations.
Supplemental stocking of native populations with non-native fish has been commonly practiced in Atlantic salmon and related species and may deliver demographic benefits in some situations.
We measured feeding preference in the lab rather than demographic impact in the field, but previous studies showing a preference of native generalist herbivores for non-native plants [17] have been consistent with measured impacts of native versus non-native herbivores in the field [9].
By contrast, much less influence of non-native genes was detected in the native range, suggesting effective buffering via competitive exclusion (Waters 2011) mediated either by demographic (high-density blocking) or genetic (local adaptation) factors or both.
They are, overwhelmingly, non-native.
Even Roy has her non-native favourites.
Most vegetation is non-native.
