Legal Definitions - bestiality

Bestiality is when a person has sex with an animal. It is against the law in most states in the United States. It is also a crime to help someone else have sex with an animal, to let someone have sex with an animal on your property, to watch someone have sex with an animal, or to take pictures or videos of someone having sex with an animal.

For example, if someone helps their friend have sex with a dog, they are committing bestiality. Or if someone lets their neighbor have sex with their horse, they are also committing bestiality. Even just watching someone have sex with an animal is against the law.

These laws exist to protect animals from being harmed and to prevent people from engaging in harmful and dangerous behavior. It is important to treat animals with respect and not use them for sexual purposes.
