  You picked three animals that will literally eat anything, I think they'll be fine.

    But there will be fewer of them, because we generate their food.

      That's only true for the rats. For the pigs and chickens (and rice), there will be fewer of them because they do not themselves have the capacity to exist at current population levels. The reason they're doing so well right now is purely that we want them to.

        Even rats. They are supported by our food and garbage.
