That's true. As with crops, there should be a mention that it's a good idea to only tag the specific livestock animal at a feature if this is something that is expected to be true in the mid to long-term.
A cattle yard or feedlot is pretty much specifically designed for cattle; a chicken farm usually has buildings and fencing pretty specifically designed for chickens, so these could be tagged with confidence. If it's an old-fashioned farm that runs a variety of animals in a certain area of pasture at different times, that would harder to tag and maintain, and wouldn't be recommended. But modern commercial farms tend to be very specialized in many countries now days.
