Foreign organisms refer to invasive species which inhabit a foreign environment. Usually invasive species out compete native species and kill them off by taking their resources (abiotic/biotic). And can be considered a "pest" because they are large in numbers and spreading/taking over native land and competing with native species. Therefore can really change an ecosystem when an invasive species comes in.
