Hi.  Would any of you happen to have written or otherwise know of articles
regarding net actual or potential impacts of invasive plants on Virginia
game species?  I say "net" because many people will argue, and rightfully,
that plants like *Elaeagnus umbellata *are a food source for wildlife.  The
impacts on biodiversity and reductions in native sources of food may be
less obvious in the shorter term.  I am wondering to what degree the spread
of invasive plants has or may impact hunting in Virginia or nearby states
over the long term.  Can you suggest any sources of information?

Thank you!
