Lionfish are venomous and invasive in the US. Just a suggestion.

Wikipedia says "In humans, Pterois venom can cause systemic effects such as pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, headache, numbness, paresthesia, diarrhea, sweating, temporary paralysis of the limbs, respiratory insufficiency, heart failure, and convulsions, and can be fatal." and "The venom is rarely fatal to healthy adults, but some species have enough venom to produce extreme discomfort for a period of several days"

Invasive? Meaning that they migrated recently? Implying that native species need to be prioritized?
