"The world's most destructive crow is invading WA, raising fears that
 the highly aggressive bird will establish a population in the State,
 causing extensive damage and wiping out native species.

 House crows,which are native to India and populous in South-East Asia,
 have recently been spotted on an offshore gas rig and in Cape Lambert
 in WA's north. Wildlife officers suspect the birds are travelling to
 Australia on boats."
