AbstractA population’s ability to adapt to new or changing environmental conditions can be an important factor impacting species success. Adaptation is frequently associated with high levels of genetic variation, and when populations with limited genetic variation experience new or changing environments, it may be difficult to respond to these conditions. Nevertheless, many species not only survive, but thrive after a small group of individuals are introduced to new habitats. This can be the case for in
