Humboldt County’s rural landscape is ideal for raising and owning livestock of all species, from family pets to animals in large commercial operations. In 2011, Humboldt County was home to over 150,000 individual livestock. That’s a lot of animals! That year our doctors made over 600 calls (not including the patients that came to us), and the numbers continue to grow.
