Ocean aliens - the problem of species in the wrong place Naked Oceans, from the Naked Scientists

Why is it sometimes such a big deal when species end up in the wrong places?

We visit the Caribbean to get the lowdown on a notorious ocean alien, the lionfish, and find out how the best policy could be Eat 'em to beat 'em.
