Animal Lore
Animal Lore fills a permanent bestiary: study a creature in its own dungeon and its stat block and signature drops are recorded for good. Everything it reveals already existed in the game — the skill is about earning the knowledge in play rather than reading it off a page. It also gates Animal Taming, which can never climb past it.
Reading a creature
Tougher creatures resist being read — roughly 10 more skill per dungeon tier.

Animal Lore is the ceiling on Animal Taming — your Taming can never climb past it. Study first, charm second.
