Knocking on heaven's door : are novel invaders necessarily facing naive native species on islands ? [PDF]
, 2016 The impact of alien predator species on insular native biota has often been attributed to island prey naivete (i.e. lack of, or inefficient, anti-predator behavior).

Teacher toads: Buffering apex predators from toxic invaders in a remote tropical landscape
Conservation LettersEven after research identifies new approaches for wildlife management, translating those methods for delivery can be logistically challenging. In tropical Australia, invasive cane toads (Rhinella marina) fatally poison many anuran‐eating native predators.

Pheromones can cull an invasive amphibian without releasing survivors from intraspecific competition
Ecosphere, 2019 Attempts to cull an invasive species often create a paradoxical situation, whereby the consequent reduction in invader densities frees the survivors from intraspecific competition—and hence, increases the viability of those survivors.
