    Is there a visual graph for navigating animal genomes by “hopping” between them? Or like an ancestry tree?

      You’re thinking of a phylogenetic tree, and whereas I can’t think of “jumping” between various points in a way that’s pragmatic, there is something like OneZoom. (Edit: Be careful if you have motion sickness.)

      Ideally you’re just looking at a tree of the taxon at the lowest level you can, in this case class Mammalia. (Technically infraclass Placentalia, but it’s cooler if you look at mammals as a whole.)

        That was fun, but I wouldn’t be able to do this without Wikipedia.

            That’s a cool game, but I skipped too many biology classes, so I also needed wiki’s help to complete it
