Zoophilia is a paraphilia involving sexual activity between human and non-human animals or a fixation on such practice. The term "zoophilia" derives from the combination of two nouns in Greek: ζῷον (zṓion, meaning "animal") and φιλία (philia, meaning "friendship" or "love").
Although sex with animals is not outlawed in some countries, it is not explicitly condoned anywhere. In most countries, bestiality is illegal under animal abuse laws or laws dealing with crimes against nature.
