Two invasive species, the American bullfrog and the brown tree snake, cost the world an estimated $16 billion between 1986 and 2020 by causing problems ranging from crop damage to power outages, according to a study published on Thursday.

The brown-and-green frog known as lithobates catesbeianus that can weigh over 0.9 kilos, had the greatest impact in Europe, according to research published in Scientific Reports.

The snakes have at times been so abundant that they caused power outages by crawling on electrical equipment, he said.
