Earthworms are a invasive species in some regions where plants and ecosystems have evolved in the absence of earthworms;

All of the terrestrial earthworms in Minnesota are non-native, invasive species from Europe and Asia (there is a native aquatic species that woodcock eat). At least fifteen non-native terrestrial species have been introduced so far. Studies conducted by the University of Minnesota and forest managers show that at least seven species are invading our hardwood forests and causing the loss of tree seedlings, wildflowers, and ferns.

There you go,it’s not cows farting,it’s earth worms.

 

[Devil's advocate]

If we get the global warming forecast, farming will have to move north, those earth worms are preparing the soil ready for us.

My worry about moving North was there any soil, it appears there is. It will cause more global warming though.
