Well-known examples include the cascading effects of decreases in sea otter (Enhydra lutris) populations that led to coastal erosion in the North Pacific, and the loss of large expanses of Hawaiian native vegetation to the lantana shrub (Lantana camara), whose expansion over the landscape is promoted by the myna bird (Acridotheres tristis) originally introduced to control a pest of sugarcane.
