The main aim is to develop a methodology that comprehensively describes the possibilities and risks associated with invasive species from the point of view of state administration. Partial aims are: I) description of risks and impacts related to the spread of species requiring regulation (research); II) evaluation of the effective eradication of species with a negative impact on original ecosystems (raccoon, nutria), including evaluation of the effectiveness and time-consuming methods of hunting and monitoring of recolonization; III) the processing of sociological surveys, focused on the motivation of hunters to kill these animals, including obtaining information on the amount of the shooting fee. The sociological survey will focus on the view from the general public.
