This article presents a study of 114 self-defined zoophile men who were researched primarily through the use of an on-line questionnaire. We describe how the participants acquired the identity label of zoophile, what it meant to them, and the irrelationships among themselves. Also examined are how the eroticized animals and how human and feral characteristics combined to form this object choice. Finally, participants’ sexual profiles with animals and humans, and how the balance of animal and human desires creates different forms of zoophilia, are described.
