Gargi's+Invasive+Species+Removal

I volunteered at an Invasive Plants Removal at a park in Raleigh. I learned about the many different invasive species and their effects. I got to see firsthand, how destructive they can be and the problems they can cause to plants and animals. We went along the side of the road and cut every invasive plant we could find. One plant we saw a lot was the English Ivy. Although some of the vines had grown a lot, we were able to kill them by making strategic cuts along the vine. We had to be especially careful when there was a vine wrapped around a large tree as we did not want to harm any native trees.
