For example, Jack and the Beanstalk. With the cow that Jack sold for the magic beans.
Other than fairytales, they can be TV shows or cartoon characters.

www.surlalunefairytales.com is an excellent site for fairy tale information. I think you can also questions there. Jack and the Beanstalk is the only one that comes to mind right now, but I am sure there are others.

The Disney movie Home on the Range featured cows prominently.

The picture book Click, Clack, Moo that came out a few years ago is hilarious, and features cows that type. There is another pb by David Milgrim called Cows Can't Fly that is cute, too.

The collective works of Andrew Lang (The multitude of 'Fairy Books' titled with a rainbow of colors) are public domain.

There are several cows from these collections of stories, but also polar bears and any other animals you care to add.

Most little nursery rhymes are political satire in disguise. The very early form of politcal cartoon. Humpty Dumpty, Ring A ring of Rosies, London Bridge, and Little Boy Blue...

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn,
The Sheep are in the medow,
The Cows are in the corn.
.... I can't remember the rest of this off the top of my head!
That one was significant of a politian that wasn't paying attention to the things he needed to tend. I'll post the pages where I have seen these.

Hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle,
The Cow jumped over the Moon...?

Snopes.com has a few listed, I'm including one link below.

I'm reading a great book called Angela Carter's (edited) Book of Fairy Tales. Some of the stories with cows in are 'Beauty and Pock Face' (Chinese) and Tatterhood (norwegian), Diirawic and her incestuous brother' (Sudanese), 'The little old woman with five cows' (Yakut). 'The good girl and the ornery girl' (Nort American). It's a good collection - i recommend it!

Jack Sprat could eat no fat
Hi wife could eat no lean
But between the two of them
They ate that entire cow and got mad cow's disease and started a European epidemic.

moral: better to go vegetarian
