It's everywhere. We often see people rehoming chickens, goats and sheep (along with horses) both because it's gotten expensive to feed them and becasue they lose their homes and can't take farm animals with them to rentals.
It's going to get exponentially worse when the shelters can't keep up and stop taking animals so that people start just letting them go 'free'. I can't think if a worse fate for a dog or cat!
Luckily, in the case of goats and chickens, there is also a rising demand if they are producing as more and more people search for ways to save money on food costs.
