so you can keep track of your animals' family trees easier, if you feel like trying to avoid inbreeding

naive gust
While this is a cute idea and I initially liked it, upon more thought I think it'd get sprawlingly huge very quickly if you breed a lot of animals, especially considering the number of sheds you can have. Also, having a family tree for each animal could confusingly imply that the player should/needs to keep track of specific parentage and heritage when breeding, despite there being no inbreeding mechanic or penalty for inbreeding in the game.

I appreciate both sides here. I'd find it very satisfying to view a whole family tree for my horses (I avoid inbreeding critters anyway), but also that amount of tracking even in plain text could bloat a save by quite a bit.

I'd feel bad, personally, because mine would basically be a straight line.

mine would also be family vine instead of a family tree, those poor bison

Mine would be a family line that only gets outside genes in the end for color variation...

A possible alternative: some way of telling - on either the breeding shed or the Animals tab of the social menu - that tells you if you've bred the animal already
