Isn't announcing cows/horses/sheep required by Road Trip Law? Also bodies of water?

Any time I see junk on the side of the road…
Old chair: “Free chair!”
Old washer: “Free washer!”
Old toilet: “Free toilet!”
And so on..
I do this with dogs. Comes up a lot more often.
Sometimes I ride in the car with my brother, SIL, and nieces if it's convenient wherever we're going. I'll point out cows or horses and things, and they never look up from their devices. It's disappointing.
When I'm alone and watch something funny, I laugh harder than when I'm with company
When I am at home and there are either no guests watching or no guests in general, I am known to sometimes move weirdly. Whether it's a reaction to my music, or in general, it naturally happens.
These are all from my childhood, my mom used to do them, usually while pointing at the thing. Often just to trick us into looking at something dumb so she could laugh, so now I do it too.
When passing a graveyard: look! Dead people!
When passing cows: look! Cows!
When passing cornfields, though not all the time cuz there are so many where I grew up: I had a joke for you, but its too corny.
When passing a sign that says STOP AHEAD: face palm stop a head!
No u-turn sign: no, sign, you turn, I don’t want to!
And a bunch of other little things like that. Needless to say the first long trip with new passengers is a blast for me.
Cows and caves!
(Inside joke. When my cousin was around 7-8 years old she read about cows and calves. Didn't know how to say the word calves. So when she saw them the first time, she called them Cows and Caves.)
I don't announce them because i'm sad they're going to be killed.
I can't imagine not doing that along with horses or anything else unusual. I mean if extensively driving in farmland I will stop once it becomes commonplace.
