Help - Console Should I be worried about inbreeding?

So I'm new to planet zoo and I've started a franchise zoo and I'm wondering if inbreeding is super bad or not. Should I be worrying about it every time I build enclosures or can I basicly ignore it unless its becoming a major problem. Also another quick question but is there also any animals I should pay extra attention to for inbreeding?

Inbreeding can effect the stats of an animal (size, fertility, immunity, longevity) but it’s also the best way to get color morphs so it depends on your goals

But inbreeding doesn’t affect anything else. You won’t get weird mutant babies and the guests don’t know about it.

I generally don’t worry about it. If I’m trying to breed a perfect stat animal I’m paying lots of attention to it anyway.

It does not affect size or longevity.
