Random legal cases of bestiality should not be included here, and neither do anti-bestiality bills or research into non-sexual animal abuse (these are different topics than zoosadism). The legal status section was focused too much on the US and needs to be rewritten. I'm not even sure if there are enough reliable medical sources out there to write a separate article about this topic.Tags: Reverted Visual edit← Previous edit Revision as of 00:57, 14 November 2023 edit undoAnomieBOT (talk | contribs)Bots6,556,285 editsm Dating maintenance tags: {{Obsolete source}}Tag: RevertedNext edit →
