In my state, having sex with an animal was not specifically illegal until very recently. However, anyone caught in the act would be "creatively" prosecuted. The charges would typically be "deviant sexual intercourse" or cruelty to animals. Even if it was a male dog pounding away and clearly enjoying himself. I expect there are still sodomy laws on the books here, too. This is an old state and things seldom get repealed unless some special interest group throws a lot of money around.
In the late 1960s, a girl I sort of knew got caught with a neighbor's (male) dog. The charge was an obscure one that I had not heard of before or since: "Manifest danger of falling into the ways of vice" or something similar. I'm no legal expert, but that sounds like they were more worried about her becoming a prostitute than a zoophile.
I suspect that some of these new laws stem from the fact that many people consider their pets and/or livestock to be surrogate children. Therefore, having sex with an animal is no different from molesting a child.
As for me, I don't do much differently than I have in the past. I am a bit more careful now that more people are aware that such things happen. I never told anyone about my sexual preferences before, I don't now. I try my best to keep it out of sight. I was a bit careless a time or six in the past but got lucky for the most part.
Be careful, be discreet, keep your mouth shut. Watch what you post on line. Don't create media that could be used as evidence against you or let anyone create it for you. Assume that people are out to get you because they are.
Don't get caught up in the heat of the moment and let your guard down. A little common sense goes a long way.
