I understand this couldn’t always be the case, like trying to kill all Cane toads across the entirety of Australia would likely be a massive undertaking. But for say, Bull Carp in some of America’s rivers, localized just to where those rivers reach, I feel like it wouldn’t take anymore than a month and some semi-advanced technology to just aggressively fish them out of the waters? Especially given the purpose of this would be to over-hunt instead of eating them, so you could use methods like shooting them in the water instead of fishing them out carefully.
Human’s seem pretty good at over-hunting things unintentionally for sport, so why can’t we systemically over-hunt invasive species if it helps the environment?

Some species breed too much, like feral hogs. A hog can have around 6 to 8 babies in 1 litter. After around 6 months to a year those babies are ready to have their own babies. A hog can have up to 2 litters a year. They’re breeding faster than we can kill them.
