Animal Profile - Characteristics

Characteristics are the equivalent of Animal Icons in the Classic User Interface. They don't have images, but they are easy to add and remove and can include severity*.  This document walks you through how to find, add, and remove Characteristics. 

*Please note the "severity" will be set at low in the first instance, with ability to customise being included in a later release.
