And also - most critically. When introducting a predator to hunt a specific populous prey, ensure that one of them isn’t diurnal while the other is nocturnal.

Ecosystems are quite adaptable. There are only really a few big rules to keep things going. Don’t get rid of the sole predator for a populous prey animal. Don’t introduce prey animals to an environment that reproduce faster than they can be eaten. Don’t plant clones, diversify genetics within a species(looking at you, orchards and tree farms).

Seems like we should add kudzu bugs and giant pandas to North America, and all will be well 😄
