    I was reading and rereading that bad article to figure out what the problem was. Thanks for that.

      it bears a striking resemblance to the story behind Africanized honey bees.

      the risk is the same as any other international transport and release of a non native species; invasive species that damage the ecosystem. that these are creatures that don’t exist anywhere and don’t have a native habitat just makes them that much harder to predict. this was all clearly done without any thoughts about the repercussions or how to avoid them.
