I googled "injurious wildlife" to get the definition and this was the first hit I got. It's from the US Fish & Wildlife Service so I think that's relevant to what we are talking about here.



"What Are Injurious Wildlife?

Injurious wildlife are mammals, birds, amphibians,

reptiles, fish, crustaceans, mollusks and their offspring

or gametes that are injurious to the interests of human

beings, agriculture, horticulture, forestry, wildlife or wildlife

resources of the United States. "



I think the definition is pretty broad so I think it's pretty easy to say that burms are injurious to wildlife considering they eat native wildlife.



That said, I still don't think the federal legislation is necessary.



Mike
