What is
Bestiality
noun
| \ ˌbes-chē-ˈa-lə-tē
sexual relations between a human being and a lower animal
one important aspect of the dignity of the animal is its sexual integrity. Along
the lines of the sexual integrity of mankind, recognized in modern criminal
law concepts as a legally protected right, which includes the protection from
sexual harassment. The dignity of animals should also be considered. Thus
any zoophilic act which does not respect the intentions of the animal, and
therefore is effected by using some form of force. not all animals suffer
physical injury or can show clearly their aversion to intimate contacts with
people. Indeed, there are many animals who remain relatively unexpressive
during these sexual acts and who obediently submit to them. If there is psy-
chological stress going on here, it is not easy for us to detect.
History
According Dr. Miletski, during the spring fertility of Babylon, men and women would use
dogs (in secret) for multiple-day orgies, exhausting the abused animal until it died. Then, the
dead dog's penis was cut off, hardened and dried, and used for sexual escapades. The
Egyptian Old Kingdom pharaoh Cheops, who is famous for building one of the pyramids,
often boasted about the passionate sex he had with mares; one of the most famous orgies
of ancient Rome featured the goddess Bona Dea and a bunch of dogs. It's even
documented that one of Hitler's doctors at Auschwitz was obsessed with bestiality
experiments and tried to create a dog-woman hybrid from Jewish and Polish females to use
for manual labor.
Pros

Dr Hani Milestki in 1999 he relationship between a zoophile and his/her animal partner is

2.
cons
1. interspecies sexual assault
Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture Act (PACT), this bill would prohibit the extreme
acts of animal cruelty depicted in the videos
The PACT Act would strengthen current federal law that outlaws the commerce in crush
videos where animals are tortured for a sexual fetish
H.R. 2293 was introduced by Rep. Lamar Smith, (R-TX), Ted Deutch (D-FL), Tom Marino
(R-PA) and Earl Blumenthal (D-CT). The Senate bill, 1831, was introduced by Senators Pat
Toomey (R-PA) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT).
The Philippines does have a law in place called the Animal Welfare Act of 1998. It
prohibits torture, but it does cover the care of privately owned animals.
2. Degraded people
According to Kant, bestiality—like masturbation or homosexuality—was not only
against the animal nature and humans’ natural instincts, but it degraded people
“below the level of animals”
3. Health risk
According to Washington state department of health
Leptospirosis: Any contact with the sexual organs of dogs, cattle,
pigs, horses and sheep can transmit this bacterial disease to humans.
Leptospirosis can cause Meningitis which leads to death in about 10%
of the case
Echinococcosis: Parasitic worms from the feces of dogs, cats, and
sheep can cause this disease. e worms cause cysts in lungs, liver,
brain, spleen, heart, and kidneys. If not treated, this disease can be
fatal.
Rabies: One of the most severe of zoonoses, rabies is transmitted
from the saliva of cats, dogs and horses. is is a viral infection which
a ects the central nervous system and is almost always fatal if not
treated soon a er the exposure

Statistics
On April 15, 2015 Reuters reported on bestiality in Denmark and cited a 2011 Justice
Ministry report that found 17% of veterinarians suspected a human had sex with an animal
they treated. (sic)
An expert on animal sexual abuse, M. Jenny Edwards offers sobering data to consider.1
56% of male sex offenders, 55% of female sex offenders, 38% of child sex offenders, and
11% of rapists reports having sexually abused an animal.
29% of inmates arrested for pornography-related offenses collected animal porn as well as
child porn. 25% of men who viewed adult pornography online also viewed animal porn.
6% of juvenile male offenders admitted to sexual contact with an animal.
35% of arrests for bestiality also involve child sexual abuse or exploitation. In addition,
nearly 40% of offenders have prior criminalrecords for bestiality, child sexual
abuse, domestic violence, battery, adult rape, substance abuse, trespass, public indecency,
even murder.
In the 1940s, around 8% of men and 3.6% of women admitted to having relations with an
animal in a survey done by researcher Alfred Kinsey.
