One of my earliest memories
is being at a petting zoo and a goat nicking a packet of cigarettes out of my dad's back pocket and eating the entire thing, including the cellophane, and my dad furiously chasing it.
My mum has a picture of it somewhere, and I'm laughing so hard that I've actually fallen over. Couldn't have been older than 3.

Was it a packet of Camel cigarettes?
I'd imagine a goat would like them.

Door. Internet.
Shoo.

I have a photo of me aged 7 or 8 on holiday at some adventure park or other
and a tame jackdaw is perched on my head pecking at my ears.

My dad is taking the photo rather then rescuing his hysterical child. It's a little blurry because he was laughing.

We'll see who's laughing when he needs to go into a home.

Yes, there is another picture of me somewhere
standing on a gate attempting to feed a cow, only it's eating my dress right off me instead. Again with the parent choosing to giggle and photograph, rather than rescue the child.

If it makes you feel any better, that cow has probably been eaten by a human by now.
If not, it'll be dead from cow-related old-age (or burnt during the BSE crisis).

Seeing as this was 20 years ago
(fucking hell - 20 years ago?!) I'm going to go with yes, that cow is almost certainly dead. Although I grew up right next to a farm (and very near another) and we were very lucky that there were no compulsory slaughters in the area at the height of either BSE or foot and mouth.
