Parks in Shanghai are being overrun by alien species, says the Shanghai municipal gardening administration bureau after inspecting 18 parks in the city.

 

Recently, bird observers found Styan's squirrels in Gongqing Forest Park and Zhongshan Park and red-eared sliders in Xuhui Park and Kangjian Park.

 

Red-eared slider turtles, a species that originated in Brazil, are an internationally recognized ecological invader. They grow quickly and survive easily, according to Professor Li Yingsen from Shanghai Maritime University.

 

They also reproduce in large numbers and can snatch food from native turtles thus threatening their existence.

 

These turtles were widely seen in a scenic spot in suburban Shanghai where visitors are encouraged to buy the animals and free them in the local river.

 

"Those superstitious people used to buy many turtles and other animals and throw them in public waters, such as the Yanzhong Park," said a turtle seller at Wanshang Flower and Bird market in downtown Shanghai.

 

"You see many turtles in the park when the weather is fine," the turtle seller said.

 

Styan's squirrels, previously a rare sight in Shanghai, are now seen in public parks, most of them former pets capable of destroying trees, the report said. Shanghai also is not a native home to azure-winged magpies, now found as strays or outdoor pets in the city.

 

But turtles and squirrels aren’t the only problem; there are other furry and slimy aliens invading the city.

 

 

Rabbits from the Netherlands and Belgium, frogs from the United States, and parrots from South America can be found in Shanghai's flower and bird markets.

 

These animals, often considered odd pets, are sold at lower prices than cats or dogs. Red-eared slider turtles are sold at 10 yuan (US$1.3) a pair.

 

"The state has regulations on the import of foreign animals," Zhang said, "but that doesn't mean all imported animals are safe."

 

The report urged people who no longer want their pets - either because they're tired of them or the pets got too large to handle - not to abandon them in public.
