For me: born and that in-born preference is somehow triggered by events. Or lays dormant forever, when NOT invoked. So sad ... ;-)
 
I didn't really notice or care until I started watching porn in my teens, but I've liked it as soon as I found out about it, even if I fought with shame for a long time, so born I guess.
 
Made, most likely. I had circumstances growing up that made animals more preferable to humans that went dormant for a while longer... until around the start of the pandemic.
 
I am male and my father introduced me to sex on the farm as a young boy bye watching a stallion mount a mare. Not his fault but for quite awhile I thought doggy position was natural.
 
I lean towards born a zoo cuz when I play with dogs I get hard lol I can’t help it it’s embarrassing so I just stick to light petting in public lol.

No it’s a choice, just as much as bi, lez, and gay.

Huh? And what motivation is behind that choice? And is that motivation born or made? Or is that a choice in your mind as well? Not trying to be shitty by any means, but doing it is a choice, yes, but the motivation behind the choice? Which I think is what the OP was about.
 
I miss the option for both. Its the old nature vs nurture debate and its been settled decades ago that it is both. The extent of the influence on each area is where the debate still is ongoing. So there most likely is some genetic predisposition toward zoo behavior among zoos, but simply having a predisposition doesnt mean you have to become zoo. Its like fear of spiders, humans have a genetic predisposition to fear spiders, which translates into needing far less negative experiences with spiders to start fearing them, opposed to beetles where you would need many more. So a person with the zoo genes would need less incentives to start zoo behaviour as opposed to someone without them.
 
I’ve always felt my primary reason to call myself a zoo was respecting any 4 legger the same as a 2 legger, which is something I was aware of to some extent for as long as I’ve been alive, so I was inclined to vote born. On the flip side, I don’t know when I started to become sexually attracted, and that very well could have been built in me.

Depends what experiences you had that made you a zoo, but that argument makes me think "born". Pet-wise, I only had a cat, and only when I was a kid. And I'm not even sexually attracted to cats. And I don't live on a farm. Yet I'm crazy over mares and bitches. Go figure.

For sure, my family first took in a stray momma cat when I was like 4 who had 3 litters. We didn’t adopt a dog until I was 9, so I grew up taking care of very self sufficient outdoor cats, but never feel any attraction to cats.

I grew up in a bison rancher family, but never became attracted to them either
 
I remember when I first heard of a woman having sex with a dog and even though I had never seen it, I instantly loved the idea.
So yeah, I was probably born being into it.

That's a lot to respond to but most of it goes right over my head, genetics and all that. I get very confused about what zoo even means. I do think I see the difference between zoophilia and bestiality, but if zoo means attracted romantically, desiring relationships, mating, life partnership and stuff, I'm not anything. I have a lot of sex but never feel an emotional connection with anybody of any species like so many people talk about. I'm just an animal like all the rest. We all have sex. And stuff like species and gender just don't cross my mind when someone wants to fuck me.

Inter-species sex is wrong according to society and against its rules, but so were a lot of other things once upon a time. In my small mind the the desire to have a dog inside me isn't a mental disorder or genetic malfunction or even a perversion. It's a proclivity, a taste, a bent as natural as loving chocolate, being an introvert or feeling feminine. Sex is how a species survives but procreation is not the only or even most common reason humans have sex. A guy isn't trying to make a baby when he's reaming my rectum or cumming down my throat, when he covers his cock in latex and pumps it into my vagina. And I don't see how the impossibility of a dog inseminating me makes sex with him any more unnatural or immoral than the impossibility of a dude inseminating me when I'm sucking his dick. I mean, when I take my clothes off and drop in front of him a dog is instinctually driven to mount me but I doubt he's thinking Ooooh, gotta make a puppy!

I answered born because I get hot for members of many species, but I was terrified of sex in general for a long time and the idea of doing it with a dog had never crossed my mind until, well... I was weird and ugly and alone. He was my family, my best and only friend in the world, and on a night when no one remembered my birthday it happened.

I want to hear about your first time
 
Due to my scientific and medical background, I'm quite confident that sexual orientation is not simply genetics. If it were, we'd have found out by now ... and to all the people pointing towards studies showing differences in brain chemistry: yes, those differences are real however our brain's development is largely driven by experiental learning, where early experiences shape much of our internal wiring.

That said, the discussion "born with it" seems moot in my opinion since none of us are born sexually active. We become sexually active once our brain is ready for it and that leaves plenty of time for both nature and nurture to affect us, making it impossible to separate their impact. The more interesting question underneath this is, is being zoo something you can create or undo .. or could it be a choice?

I don't think it's a choice, just like any sexual orientation isn't a choice. It was likely caused by very early developmental experiences which can never be undone again. Can you"make" a zoo? Yes, probably if you expose a child early on to certain stimuli. Should you? Absolutely not! Consciously steering development towards something so far from the norm seems highly unethical to me .. although parents do it constantly. I suppose that's one of the reasons I'm choosing not to be a parent. ?

But the question also was what made me interested in animals? Well I can easily pinpoint several early experiences that have culminated to this particular sexual preference but I also want to add that I'm not zoo exclusive and while I love animals, I don't consider them a romantic partner to replace human partners. Then again I'm polyamourous when it comes to humans too so it's all a bit blurry. Love is complicated. ?

Anyway, my early experiences ... as a kid, I grew up on a goat farm so my first real-life sexual exposure was to goats breeding. My father bred them for show purposes, think dog shows but with miniature goats. So the breeding events were usually big deals with a buck being brought in from far away to breed a specific doe and all the people watching them. Obviously that meant I've been watching them as a kid too .. and once sexual maturity set on, the link was made. Some early exploration may have happened in the stable as well, when my parents were away.

Secondly as an early teen I discovered the porn stash of my father on the attic .. this was before the internet so they were all dirty magazines. And quite a few of them were zoo magazines with stories and pictures of people having sex with animals. Ding, more wiring in my brain formed.

Later on the interest became active and the internet provided a plethora of stimuli of course.

But I also believe another major contributor of prefering animals over humans has to do with trauma and safety. I personally don't have any sexual trauma or anything but due to my nature and being a bit of a social outcast, I do feel safer among non-judgemental furry critters than the human kind. They keep things simple and just live in the moment. No doubts, no guilt, no judgement. Eat, sleep, sex, protect, care, love ... it's that utter lack of complication that is so attractive.

I can't be romantically involved with animals. I am straight with people and animals. I'm open and curious, that's why I allowed our family dog to lick my cock and my ass a long time ago. This good feeling had a conditioning effect on me and since then, apart from people, I can occasionally get excited about big dogs. I don't know how long this excitement will last, because if I ever manage to satisfy myself in a dog's pussy, I don't know if I would want it more times or not.
 
Good question. I thing it is mixed. Some of us have been very naughty sins we were small, others grow in the porn industry and want things to be spiced a bit up.
 
Probably a combination of both, there’s definitely a biological component to mine given the proximity of non-human apes to humans in the taxonomic tree. However, I’m also bisexual who grew up in a strict Christian household that repressed sexualities that weren’t heterosexual and monogamous. It was a hypocritical household. Some of my first exposure to sexual organs were the research books I read about primates and it definitely awoke something in me.
 
I ended up being into zoo-sex simply because I'm a bit of a slut for anything and everything related to being degraded and humiliated, and being a pet's breeding hole simply fits into that.

There is a difference between zoophilia as your sexual orientation and "zoos" who came to like having sex with animals in some different way.
Anyone who is not sexually attracted to animals but is in fact attracted to humans but also has sex with animals was obviously not born a zoophile.
Zoophilia also does not need to be genetic, probably is not even likely do be genetic, since actual zoophiles do not tend to reproduce, but could be a mistake in development during puberty.

Welp, I know that I have a cousin similar in age that had a totally different upbringing than I did who is zoo as well. I tend to lean towards zooishness being something folks are born with a tendency, and then of course exposure pushes the edge.
Just my thoughts on the matter.

animalistic, going into a raw mindset where you are ruled by the id ? I guess in some way I’m similar because when with a dog, especially a male dog, I lose my self and want to become totally his!
