- Description:
- Exotic invasives quickly colonize abandoned agricultural lands in the verdant landscapes of the highland ZUEs. This increases the effort required to bring farms back into production and incentivizes their abandonment. This wall of vines along the road leading to La Soledad, is typical of vegetative growth in the ZUE agricultural landscapes.

- Description:
- The first known introduction of goats to the islands may have occurred as early as AD 1693. Currently naturalized on three islands and eradicated on another 11, goats are a highly problematic invasive. These feral goats were photographed in 2014 in the highlands above Hacienda La Tranquila, despite declarations that no wild goats were to be found on San Cristóbal.

- Description:
- Although impossible to substantiate, exotic rats may have been the earliest introduced alien on the islands. They could easily have been introduced as ships were careened and "smoked" on islands from early times. They are today particularly widespread, having invaded at least 36 islands where they prey on the eggs and young of reptiles and birds.
