@ Mccapra: added a more footnotes banner to this page. I don't think that's helpful. Each section is supported by its own reference. It would be more helpful to add citation needed, than to add a boilerplate on top. The only section that potentially needs more references is the IUCN Red List-section IMHO. I'm doing this now, please revert me if you think this is inapproriate BFG ( talk) 10:05, 1 October 2020 (UTC) reply
