Long overdue: more specific controls over notifications

I adore Planet Zoo, but by golly, I do get sick and tired of these specific notifications:
  • ____ is about to mate
  • ____ is about to inbreed
  • ____ is expecting offspring
  • ____ is about to give birth
  • ____ is about to mature
  • Animal is stressed
"About to give birth/mature" are both pretty meaningless -- the notification often comes a month before the event even happens in-game, but in the case of a birth, it plays a little lullaby jingle that fakes me out every time. And "Animal is stressed?" I don't even keep gazelle or okapi in my zoos anymore because I get tired of being alerted every time they have a 2-second crisis because a guest made eye contact.

What would be really wonderful is if we had a bit more control over some of the specific alerts we receive. In some of my zoos I definitely do want to know when animals are about to inbreed, or if my silly elephants are finally trying for a baby. But in others, I just want to know when the births, maturations, and deaths happen. At this point I usually keep my notification tab open so that I only see the actual events instead of getting a steady stream of text bubbles popping up at me to tell me my flamingos are about to mate, or warning me in scary red text about an animal that's about to inbreed when I'm the one who sanctified that union.
