References
A lot of the things I say in this video are based on personal experience and so do not need referencing (this is known as "primary research" in academia). Of the remaining content, a lot of the wildlife/nature knowledge I talk about is relatively easily verified and/or generally accepted at this stage of human civilisation; the following references are suitable for this general information.
