VBO terms were defined as groups of animals, but this is incompatible with NCBITaxon where terms refer to individuals, for example Fido is a canis lupis familiaris and is a chihuahua.
[x] Update vertebrate breed and high level classification definitions to describe individual animals.
[x] Update has_foundation_stock to omit underscores
[x] Update located_in to 'breed reported in'
[x] Add curator comment to breed-country terms originating from DAD-IS: "The concept of “breed found in a country as reported by FAO National Coordinators” is unique to DAD-IS (https://www.fao.org/dad-is/en/). This VBO term should therefore be used specifically for breed conforming this concept."
[ ] Update VBO documentation to reflect the above.
