Legality of Bestiality by U.S. State | 2024

Hello everyone, I used to have an account on here previously but forgot it. I came back because I am more interested in meeting people and learning more things centered around zoophilia. I have always been leaning very hard into borderline zoo territory with my interests and finally have accepted myself more to it.

Anyways, doing my research on the topic, I was interested in figuring out the legality of bestiality in the United States. I checked out archived wikipedia posts, wikipedia images, and a whole bunch of forums. I did not get concise and accurate information and it is very likely there is no place online with current up-to-date information on this topic. I decided I would create an updated version of a map to share with everyone. Rather than sharing it publicly elsewhere online, I thought it would be a good idea to share it in a place more centered around the topic. Which would be this forum. I know many people would like to be in-the-know on the updated information for whatever purpose it may serve to them. I went ahead and did research on every single states laws centered around "Bestiality" or "Crimes Against Nature" and came up with this information regarding each states current stance on the topic.

There are 3 maps made.
1st Map: Complete comprehensive overview.
2nd Map: General overview.
3rd Map: Repeat offense after first.

I hope this information is intriguing and helpful to people. Let me know your thoughts or comments on it!

To get a complete view, we may need to look at case law for how animal abuse laws are interpreted. I suspect that very vague laws can be bent to fit criminalizing animal sex. This is especially concerning for West Virginia but also it could be used in states with misdemeanor offenses to make it more severe. Maybe animal abuse can be a felony.

I would also be interested in if the Wikipedia article on the legality of downloading or possessing zoo porn is up to date.

Thank you for your work!
There were quite a few states in which the laws were very, very difficult to interpret, Having to go back and forth between subsections to make sense of which aligns to the correct penalty. A few states also only based it off of prison time and fines instead of being specifically a class of offense making it a little challenging to align the maximum and minimum fines and sentence time to a class of offense. Some were also very vague on the specific term for bestiality among other writings as well.
Most of the states got straight to the point though in classification as Class X misdemeanor or felony.

Seeing case law on different judicial interpretations would be very cool indeed. Would love to do some digging into a few if I could find any.
As for the different interpretations of misdemeanor over to a felony under different jurisdictions, I made sure to be super conservative on aligning the most severe outcome that could occur in states that were generally too broad on how they persecute within their written laws.

I saw some states mentioning more of a list on other bestiality related topics that weren't necessarily bestiality on their own such as the possession of media, transfer of media, creation of media. Most states have also made a general exception to professional medical practices, different certified individuals, and animal husbandry among other things. I could do some digging again into the specifics and display a few more maps on different topics

Thanks for the comment! :)

It's great that you've taken the initiative to research the legality of bestiality across various states.
 
Is there any person in the US or any where else who has ever been found and officially convicted of sexual acts involving an animal? I know that here where I am its difficult for a prosecutor to prove that there is animal cruelty with ZOO as the question arises that how anyone can prove that there wasnt consent from the animal and did the animal initiate the sexual interaction/s or did the person initiate the sexual interactions. Its a stale mate for legislation cause should the animal be charged for initiating the act and is it actually cruelty to humans in that case? Any thoughts peoples. Would be good to hear any thoughts from a dog or a horse on this matter. Oh thats right us humans are stupid and we cant understand what the animals are saying so lets just crucify and prosecute the person as they are an easier target. Or is it just a so called academic creating legislations in highly paid occupations to justify their position. I believe the majority of people in highly paid positions are corrupt as how can anyone justify the quantity of moneys that they earn sitting on their asses all day. Politicians are the biggest and most corrupt criminals. How come they hardly ever end up in prison. Lawmakers and politicians create laws to indemnify them from prosecution. So we are all judged in society by criminals who hide behind the laws that they create to protect themselves. There are loop holes in all laws for them to avoid prosecution and it is for us to try and find these loop holes to avoid imprisonment. Its all hide and go seek and if you dont have the money you are stuffed.
