I think I figured out why I'm Zoo!

Firstly, I wouldn't fully consider myself to be zoo. I think it's appropriate to say that I'm just a normal heterosexual male with an strong interest in human females. But exploring forums like Zoovilleforum definitely opened up my sexual radar towards animal partners as well.

Personally, I can quickly and easily create bonds with domesticated animals like dogs, cats, and other farm animals that I've interacted with, and I can usually pick out body language and other social signals when I interact with them. I'm really motivated to engage with my partners affections, and I think that animals are just as capable of being affectionate with us humans are with each other.

I think my own identification with the zoo community definitely comes from watching other people interact with animals and refusing/not recognizing when an animal is trying to communicate with them (affectionately or otherwise). It's like watching someone who really needs a hug get brushed off, there is something agitating about watching someone be that blind to the love that is being shown to them. I feel that for me, I wouldn't mind having a zoo partner because I want to reciprocate affectionate emotions from a partner, even if they aren't human. I don't want to knowingly make another animal miserable, when I have it within my ability to make them happy (sexually or otherwise).

For instance, I just watched this video today:
And it was so frustrating when the employee came into the shoebill's enclosure. She started making noise to greet him. And she started bowing when he was near the floor. She was trying to say hello and show him how happy she was to see him that day. I just wanna be there in the enclosure! Interact with this poor bird! I want to know how to make them comfortable or happy! Ururugehghghgh!

I think that's why I'm so invested in Kevin Richardson's videos, like this one:
He is really attentive to the animals in his care, and he properly interacts with them, showing them love and attention.

In other words, just as much as someone sexuality doesn't have to involve sex, my zoo sexuality definitely stems from a desire to be affectionate and caring towards animals. I can definitely understand and identify with those who are zoo that a big part of being zoo is simply wanting to be more intimate with other animals, whether that's physical intimacy or emotional intimacy.
