The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question does not provide options, we can answer the following.

Non-native species can be declared an invasive species under the Lacey Act, triggering federal aid and action to curtail the problem.

One of the ways that the United States federal government found to protect the wildlife and the environment in American territory was the Lacey Act of 1900. It was US President William McKinley who signed the bill on May 25. The important thing about this legislation is that the act included severe penalties to punish violators. The Lacey Act put special emphasis on the conservation of bird species that were in danger.
