Two invasive species — the American bullfrog and the brown tree snake — have cost the world over $13 billion since 1986. The two species destroy farm crops and cause expensive power outages.

The brown tree snake spread uncontrollably across several Pacific Islands and is responsible for a shocking $10.3 billion worth of damage. As for the American bullfrog, it is responsible for about $3 billion in damage. They are known to eat almost everything including other bullfrogs.

The frogs were accidently introduced by the US marines in the last century. The common coqui frog was blamed for making the values of property lower because of their extremely loud mating song.
