I agree with your arguments when it comes to "preserving the purity of your local human race" or culture - it's essentially impossible to stop those shifts. However I don't think it applies the same way to invasive species - people and their ideas are very hard to filter for in terms of immigration but stopping people from bringing in animals or plants is much easier and we have systems for that already in place.



Depends on the size of the animal.

The invasive hippos in Colombia (yes, it's real) can easily be exterminated anytime the Colombians want.

But I don't think there is any chance of removing the House Sparrow from America.
