Abstract

This chapter investigates the direct impacts of introduced seabird predators on the terrestrial plants and other animals that inhabit seabird islands. It discusses the direct effects of seabird predators on arthropods, mollusks, amphibians, reptiles, land birds, mammals, and plants. It analyzes various studies that look into what determines species' vulnerability to seabird predators. It contains information gathered from systems where the predators are not native. It focuses on five species: cats, foxes, pigs, rats, and mice and looks into their effects on the island's ecology. It also considers the inherent limitations that pose difficulties in assessing the impacts of introduced predators.
