Zoophilia

Commonly used Zoophile pride flag

Zoophiles are persons sexually attracted to non-human animals, or expressing that preference. Zoophilia is one of the supposed Big 3 paraphilias - atypical sexual interests such as pedophilia and necrophilia.

Since the late-10s, there has been an increasing volume and velocity of information and discourse development around Zoophilia in online communities such as X, Bluesky and Tumblr. There is considerable crossover between Zoo (Zoophile) and MAP communities, although many Zoos attempt to exclude MAPs and vice-versa.

ZETA Principles

Zoophiles have agreed upon shared ethical principles; not all Zoophiles agree with these principles or their use:
