** Implied in a very vague sense between Angua (a werewolf) and Gavin (a wolf — and much smarter than most. According to Angua, he understands over 800 words, and as she points out, "Many people get by on less"). It's not explicitly stated, and it was long since past even if it was, but... well.

** Implied in a very vague sense between Angua (a werewolf) and Gavin (a wolf — and much smarter than most. According to Angua, he understands over 800 words, and as she points out, correctly, "Many people get by on less"). It's not explicitly stated, and it was long since past even if it was, but... well. She's a werewolf, so technically she's as close to wolf as she is to human, but even still. Vimes and Gaspode both take note of the dynamic, with Gaspode only really being awkward because he's around Carrot and Vimes - after noting that Gavin looks pretty much as intelligent as most people he deals with - decides that he has other things to be worrying about.
*** Angua discusses this indirectly in relation to her own angst about her relationship with Carrot and her nature as a werewolf. As she points out, first, werewolves are fundamentally unstable creatures, being caught between being human and being wolf, two ''very'' different states, and there's an inherent tension between the two - which on more than one occasion, results in madness. It's also shown on more than one occasion that the longer she stays in wolf form, the more she ''thinks'' like a wolf, because per Discworld shapeshifting rules, TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody. She also explicitly confirms that werewolves and wolves interbreed just as humans and werewolves do (and, incidentally, wolves dislike werewolves for many of the same reasons humans do and then some), remarking that Gavin is probably a throwback to one of those pairings. Less positively, she points out that it's the origin of more than a few of the fairy tale monsters - humans with that predator instinct, and wolves with that capacity for sadism that's all too human.

* Towards the end of ''[[Literature/TakeshiKovacs Altered Carbon]]'', the main character is fighting his way through an exclusive hangout for sexual deviants, and he finds a battered-looking dog and a man who did ''something'' unpleasant to it (and who incidentally has his pants down). The main character shoots the man in the head (nonlethal, given the futuristic setting, but quite an unpleasant experience). This is treated as a PetTheDog moment.
* ''Literature/TheAndroidsDream'' features a corporate MadScientist who creates a variety of genetically modified creatures from a combination of animal and human DNA - not for his own, uh, use, but that of powerful people. The "clients" provide him with money and favours, both as a straight exchange for access to the menagerie and under threat of blackmail.
* The first book of the ''Literature/AubreyMaturin'' series has a mention of a sailor who gets caught buggering a goat, meaning he will be hanged, and the poor goat slaughtered. When Jack doesn't want to deal with the situation and its inevitable impact on the rest of the crew, Stephen suggests he just put them ashore: "separate shores, if you feel strongly about the moral issue."

* In ''Literature/BoredOfTheRings'', boggies are described as having a "usual fondness for fuzzy animals." Spam Gangree has received a suspended sentence for having performed "an unnatural act with an underage female dragon of the opposite sex," and Frito's mother and Dildo's sister is said to have married a "hafling, i.e. part boggie, part opossum" from "the wrong side of the Gallowine."

* In the FreeLoveFuture world ruled by Christopher Goodman in the ''Literature/ChristCloneTrilogy'', bestiality is considered healthy and acceptable as well as all other forms of limitless sex.
* It doesn't happen in ''Literature/CodexAlera'' either, but the Marat and their totem animals are the subject to jokes like this among the Alerans. Kitai, one of the Marat who's bonded with Tavi, an Aleran, makes a joke similarly when she's explaining the bond--Tavi asks if his bond with her is like her father, Doroga's, bond with a gargant, named Walker, and she says when she last checked, Doroga wasn't mating with Walker... because Walker wouldn't stand for it.

** When Sergeant Colon decides to learn about farming in ''Literature/FeetOfClay'', he gets a bit worried about a book called ''Animal Husbandry'', because you hear stories...
** In ''Literature/{{Maskerade}}'' the phrase "the people of Lancre got up with the chickens and went to bed with the cows" has a [[FootnoteFever clarifying footnote]] that this means they went to bed ''at the same time'' as the cows.
** Both the above phrases are analysed in ''Nanny Ogg's Cookbook'', but sadly her thoughts on the matter are covered by notes from the publisher about how that entire section can't be used.
** In ''Literature/TheLastContinent'', Rincewind, perplexed by the presence of FunnyAnimal sheep in Crocodile's tavern, reflects that if you could get [[HalfHumanHybrid a cross between a human and a sheep]], someone would have noticed by now, especially in remote rural areas.
** And there's Bestiality Carter, who like all the Carters has a NonIndicativeName, and is very kind to animals. (The Carter family got their wires crossed; since you can name girls for virtues, well then boys...)
** Feeney from ''Literature/{{Snuff}}'' mentions how his grandfather used to know all the local people's secrets, like how one man had been caught in ''flagrante delicto'' with a common barnyard fowl.
** Subverted in ''Literature/ReaperMan'', in which the prospect of Ludmilla (a werewolf) getting together with Lupine (a wereman) is treated as a perfectly-acceptable InterspeciesRomance, despite him being a normal wolf and her, a normal human, most of the month. The fact that Lupine is fully sentient as a wereman and at the very least pretty smart (if not totally sentient — he seems to be) even as a wolf makes it palatable.
** Implied in a very vague sense between Angua (a werewolf) and Gavin (a wolf — and much smarter than most. According to Angua, he understands over 800 words, and as she points out, "Many people get by on less"). It's not explicitly stated, and it was long since past even if it was, but... well. She's a werewolf, so technically she's as close to wolf as she is to human, but even still.
** And of course, there's the infamous [[BawdySong "Hedgehog Song"]], whose full title is "The Hedgehog Can Never Be Buggered At All". Only a few stanzas are ever sung on the page (mostly by — who else? — [[DirtyOldWoman Nanny Ogg]]), but numerous unofficial versions were created soon after it first appeared in ''Literature/WyrdSisters''.
* In ''Literature/DragonBones'', one of the protagonists wants to emphasize how people would think about the high king if they knew he had a noblewoman tortured. He says they would maybe not morally object to it, but be disgusted, as if the king had had an affair with one of his hunting dogs.
* ''Literature/TheEmigrants'' features a serious version. Arvid the farmhand gets into the bad graces of the farmer's old mother. To dirty Arvid's name, she spreads a rumor that he does unknowable things to one of the cows. This becomes Arvid's motivation to emigrate to America.
* In the ''Literature/ForgottenRealms'' novel ''Elfsong'' by Elaine Cunningham, Danillo Thann has a song mocking the local bandit kingdom that goes:
-->They're far from staid after a raid,\\
The men of Zhentil Keep.\\
They slaughter all the women,\\
As they much prefer the sheep.\\
The Zhents don't eat their ill-got treat,\\
Not one of them's a glutton.\\
So isn't it a wonder,\\
How they always smell of mutton?
* In Apuleius' ''Literature/TheGoldenAss'', the main character (who's been transformed into a donkey) worries about this trope when he's sold to a gang of CampGay crossdressing priests, but nothing bad comes from it. Later in the story, he has sex with a noble matron who actually paid for him, and later is used to inflict a painful death by sex to a vile, adulterous woman, but he's so disgusted by her that he runs away instead.
* In the book ''Literature/GunsGermsAndSteel'', the author recalls a situation where a doctor was stumped as to the illness of his patient. Finally he asked if symptoms had appeared after a sexual experience. The man stammered a bit, but in the end admitted he'd had sex with a sheep while abroad. Unfortunately, the man spoke little English, so all questions and answers [[WomanScorned had to through]] [[UnstoppableRage his wife...]]
* In ''Literature/HarryPotter'', it's mentioned in passing that Dumbledore’s brother Aberforth got in trouble for a “minor scandal” with the Department of Magical Law Enforcement for “using inappropriate charms on a goat.” When an eight-year-old asked in one interview about what kind of charm it was, Rowling was a little shocked.
-->"I think that he was trying to make a goat that was easy to keep clean [laughter], curly horns. That’s a joke that works on a couple of levels. I really like Aberforth and his goats. But you know Aberforth having this strange fondness for goats if you've read book seven, came in really useful to Harry, later on, because a goat, a stag, you know. If you’re a stupid Death Eater, what’s the difference. So, [[ExactWords that is my answer to YOU]]."
* In the second ''Literature/HorusHeresy'' novel, a [[ReligionOfEvil Chaos Undivided]] ritual is described, wherein a preistess has to copulate with a sick pig to attract the favour of Slaanesh (gender-non-conforming deity of hedonism) and Nurgle (god of disease), then the preistess, who had been promised great power from the ritual, is killed and eaten by the other worshippers to attract favor from Tzeench (god of cunning) and Khorne (god of bloodshed).
* In ''Literature/TheHouseOfNight'', [[spoiler:Neferet's consort is the Bull of Darkness]].
* In ''The Journeyer,'' by Gary Jennings, a historical novel about the life and travels of Marco Polo, the slave Nostril first makes his appearance being dragged behind a panicked mare which he had been assigned to groom and to which he had been chained. Nostril's proclivities get more creative as the novel progresses.
* "Klint" by Horst Stern was called in a recension "horse porn" - it's a) one scene b) probably hallucinated (guy is seeing centaurs) and c) for special irony, the author was a reknowned German critical animal filmer who once claimed that love to animals (the un-sexual one) is "social bestiality".
* Played for laughs in ''[[Literature/LambTheGospelAccordingToBiff Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal]]'', when in which the Messiah asks a ship captain about sex ([[ChasteHero as he has been told he won't ever know a woman]]). The captain responds, "Oh, you want to know about [[ClusterFBomb fucking? I've fucked]] women, young boys, sheep, horses, the odd turtle..." Jesus' friend drags him away from the captain, prompting Christ to ask why he can't learn from the captain. The friend can only respond by stuttering, muttering "God, a turtle". ([[ChekhovsGag Throughout the rest of the story, turtle-sex is periodically referenced.]])
** Later in the book, a Hindu man is depicted having sex with a cow, claiming that it is the reincarnation of his wife.
** This is in fact one of the first jokes. As children, Magdalene and Jesus talk to Biff about his job accompanying the local shepherd (as was mentioned in the Bible example). He proudly states he [[ComicallyMissingThePoint kept a vigilant eye out for any abominations while the shepherd went behind the bushes with his favorite sheep]]. His friends have to point out that ''that'' was the abomination he was meant to watch out for.
* In ''Literature/TheLastPictureShow'',the semi-autobiographical novel by Larry McMurtry, in a small Texas town the rural students refuse to join the high-school football team because they all want to rush home and have sex with the cows instead of going to afternoon practice.
* Creator/TedChiang discusses the trope in his short SF "The Lifecycle of Software Objects" - should sex with semiintelligent AIs be alikened to it?
* In "Somebody Else's Magic", one of Creator/MarionZimmerBradley's Literature/{{Lythande}} stories, through the story Lythande constantly hears and sometimes contemplates the insult "You molester of virgin goats!" In the finale when she's confronted by a fellow member of her order who's seen evidence to let him possibly guess she's female (every member of their order has to keep one fact about themselves secret or lose their power), she starts yelling insults at him just to distract him, but when she uses the Virgin Goats one, the reaction on his face makes her immediately realize that that's ''his'' secret.
* ''Literature/TheLongEarth'': The "Beagles" are a canine-like intelligent species from a parallel Earth. When cultural exchange along the Earths lets them discover Terran dogs, they use them as sex toys. (It's an alien culture...)
* In Creator/PhilipJoseFarmer's ''Literature/LordTyger'', when the WildChild protagonist Ras Tyger [[note]]actually raised by a couple of midgets in ape-suits in order to create a kind of real-life Franchise/{{Tarzan}}[[/note]] reaches adolescence he trains a small monkey to "play" with him. The few people who learn about this react pretty much as you'd expect, but he neither understands nor cares.
* Creator/IrvineWelsh's novella 'Lorraine Goes to Livingston' features excerpts [[ShowWithinAShow from a regency romance novel one of the characters is writing]] which features a hero who falls in love with a sheep after losing his wife. The hero's friends eventually have the sheep slaughtered and served to him in order to end the infatuation.
* Hal Yarrow, protagonist of ''Literature/TheLovers'', is accused of this when [[spoiler:his beloved Jeannette is revealed to be a ''[[HumanAlien lalitha]]'', closer to an insect than a human]]. His accuser, [=MacNeff=], is promptly accused of ''planning'' this, as [[spoiler:Hal only found out when he was accused, but [=MacNeff=] knew it and apparently wanted her alive...]]
* Joan Hess's Maggody mysteries contain joking references to this, many of them in regards to how Raz Buchanon dotes upon his pet pedigree sow, Marjorie. Internal monologue by [[spoiler:Robin Buchanon]], just before [[spoiler:her death]], indicates this character had trained the family dog to engage in some highly-questionable behavior.
* ''Literature/MirrorMirror'': The cook laconicly states she had sex with a squid and even shows the suck marks. (It's [[UnreliableNarrator possible]] that the squid wanted her for [[ImAHumanitarian dinner]] and she merely wanted to annoy the priest, though.)
* Creator/CarlHiaasen, ''Native Tongue'', the dolphin scene. (And that's only a blatant example, a list of the more subtle insinuations in all his crime novels would get too long...)
* Played rather seriously in Creator/HonoreDeBalzac's novella ''A Passion in the Desert'' where a man's relationship with a leopard he domesticates is presented in romantic terms.
* In ''Literature/ProtectorOfTheSmall'', lady-knight-in-training Kel and the King's Own have dealings with a herd of centaurs. Some of them went rogue and became bandits, and it's mentioned that the leader of the others is killing the "slaves" — horses — who were mounted by the renegades, believing that being mated with wicked centaurs ruins the horses. It doesn't help that earlier on, that same leader wanted to buy ''Kel'', seeing her as sturdy and possibly able to bear sons of his kind.
* In ''Literature/RedDwarf: Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers'', when Lister reluctantly goes into the android brothel to find Rimmer, he tells the madame he isn't interested in a girl droid. Or a boy droid. Before he can explain further, she says she understands, and the lobby fills up with robot sheep.
* Ferrol Sams' book ''Run With The Horseman'' has the character nicknamed "Moo Cow" for this reason.
* OlderThanPrint: In the [[Literature/TheIcelandicSagas Saga of Halfred the Sigskald]] from the Tenth Century, Halfred has to pay damages to his rival for making a mocking verse about how he "enjoys the herd".
* Creator/JohnDonne's "Satire IV", which skewers gossipy would-be courtly types, references this one:
-->Who wasts in meat, in clothes, in horse, he notes;\\
Who loves Whores, who boyes, and who goats.
* In ''Literature/ShadowOfTheConqueror,'' this is PlayedForLaughs. [[RetiredMonster Daylen]] intentionally invents a rumor at the start of the book that the leaders of a specific foreign country all have sex with goats. This goes on to be a RunningGag.
* Averted in ''Smokescreen'' by Robert Sabbag, where the protagonist is bemused to get a [[TooMuchInformation detailed explanation]] of the need for bestiality while in Columbia. Thanks to the MadonnaWhoreComplex, sex is only available from married women, or prostitutes whom {{Hormone Addled Teenager}}s can't afford. So animals are an accepted substitute (though donkeys are regarded as cleaner than chickens).
* In ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'', [[spoiler:Arya/Jeyne]] is forcibly married to AxCrazy Ramsay Bolton, and while the abuses she suffers are never specified, when she is [[spoiler:rescued]] she says that she'll "do whatever he wants, with him or the dog" before breaking down. There's also hints that Bolton has an unusual attachment to his hunting dogs, who are all female. PlayedForDrama to the extreme (as she can be heard crying throughout the entire castle, constantly). In a more humorous take, while the subtext is clear, the ribald song "The Bear and the Maiden Fair" has subtext implying it's a bear of a ''man'' (i.e. large, lots of coarse hair) who wins said maiden by being good at oral sex, but the text just has him as a plain, if talking, bear. And of course, there's the tale Tormund Giantsbane, Husband to Bears tells of that time he was really drunk...
** Varamyr Sixskins is a skin changer and controls/can enter the mind of three wolves. He has been known to enter the female wolf when its being mounted by the alpha wolf, and the male doing the mounting. Yek.
* In ''Literature/SpellSinger'', as it takes place in a world where humans and anthropomorphic animals live as equals, they see no issue with inter-species relationships. Jon-Tom (who is from our world) is very uncomfortable with this. Flores (who is also from our world) not only does has no culture shock, but she is mentioned to have hooked up with an anthro Rabbit after her character was PutOnABus.
* ''Literature/SplitHeirs'': It's strongly implied that Odo has had sex with his sheep. Gorgarians are also implied to have sex with their mares at times.
* In the ''Literature/StephaniePlum'' book series:
** Stephanie's cousin Vinnie was once "in love" with a duck. Vinnie is the butt of this joke quite often. In one of Stephanie's monologues he's said to sleep with anything: Women, Men, Dogs, Goats...
** There's also a persistent rumor about Joyce's alleged fondness for dogs...
* In ''Literature/{{Tinker}}'', [[spoiler:Chiyo, a Kitsune, is forced by Lord Tomtom to breed with and becomes pregnant by a warg; a sort of pony sized wolf.]]
* Creator/JohnRingo plays with this quite literally in ''[[Literature/PaladinOfShadows Unto the Breach]]'', where one of the village elders essentially comments that [[OnceDoneNeverForgotten it was just one goat...]]
* ''Literature/WetGoddess'' is a story of a (human) college student Zachary Zimmerman falling in love with a bottlenose dolphin Ruby.
* Notably averted in ''Literature/{{Xanth}}.'' The realm's magic makes it possible for nearly any two creatures to produce viable offspring as long as they can make the parts fit — and if they don't fit, you can get an accommodation spell. Most beings tend to be attracted to their own species, but InterspeciesRomance abounds and carries very little stigma. And then there are the [[LovePotion love springs]] — if you drink from one, you immediately fall in love with the next creature of the opposite sex you lay eyes on. When, say, a man and his mare drink from the same spring, the result is a centaur.
* From ''The Xenophobe's Guide to the Welsh'', a joke apparently told by the Welsh themselves:
-->"Have you heard? Old Jones the farmer has been found interfering with a sheep!"\\
"Good heavens! Ewe or ram?"\\
"Ewe... there's nothing funny about Jones."
** In a variant, the response to the first line is "Ewwww...." and the answer to that is "Of course... there's [&c]."
* ''Literature/TheAndroidsDream'' features a corporate MadScientist who creates a variety of genetically modified creatures from a combination of animal and human DNA - not for his own, uh, use, but that of powerful people. The "clients" provide him with money and favours, both as a straight exchange for access to the menagerie and under threat of blackmail.
* The first book of the ''Literature/AubreyMaturin'' series has a mention of a sailor who gets caught buggering a goat, meaning he will be hanged, and the poor goat slaughtered. When Jack doesn't want to deal with the situation and its inevitable impact on the rest of the crew, Stephen suggests he just put them ashore: "separate shores, if you feel strongly about the moral issue." When Jack offers Stephen some milk in his coffee: "Goat's milk?" "Why, yes, I suppose so." "Perhaps without milk, then..."
* ''Literature/BazilBroketail'': Trolls like to have sex with farm animals, we hear early on. Relkin and Lagdalen find it disgusting, naturally.
* The novel ''Literature/{{Beloved}}'' [[PlayedForDrama plays this completely seriously]]. The male slaves on the farm have sex with cows because they have no prospect of sleeping with a woman.
* In ''Literature/BoredOfTheRings'', boggies are described as having a "usual fondness for fuzzy animals." Spam Gangree has received a suspended sentence for having performed "an unnatural act with an underage female dragon of the opposite sex," and Frito's mother and Dildo's sister is said to have married a "hafling, i.e. part boggie, part opossum" from "the wrong side of the Gallowine."
* The main character and his horse in ''[[Literature/HeraldsOfValdemar Brightly Burning]]'' by Creator/MercedesLackey. Of course, since the horse is a TalkingAnimal, it's not quite as perverted.
** He and his Companion are in love with each other, but he only ever mounts her in the usual equine sense. The heralds probably would have had something to say, otherwise... Luckily Companions are the divinely reincarnated souls of dead (human) Heralds, which helps a little.
*** To be even more precise, [[spoiler:he and his Companion are Life Bonded, which means they are fated to be paired together and it is something they has NO control over. This normally means romantically, which certainly raises implications. However, while they are life bonded, it is never acted on sexually. It does mean that he will never have a normal romantic relationship with anyone else. Lackey started the Life Bond concept as the ultimate romantic ideal, but gradually moved it back as her work progressed to indicate that it could have problems. This pairing was one prime example of the problems that could result]].
* In the FreeLoveFuture world ruled by Christopher Goodman in the ''Literature/ChristCloneTrilogy'', bestiality is considered healthy and acceptable as well as all other forms of limitless sex.
* It doesn't happen in ''Literature/CodexAlera'' either, but the Marat and their totem animals are the subject to jokes like this among the Alerans. Kitai, one of the Marat who's bonded with Tavi, an Aleran, makes a joke similarly when she's explaining the bond--Tavi asks if his bond with her is like her father, Doroga's, bond with a gargant, named Walker, and she says when she last checked, Doroga wasn't mating with Walker... because Walker wouldn't stand for it.
* [[http://dinosaurerotica.com/ The dinosaur erotica series by Alara Branwen and Christie Sims.]] Hot dinosaur-on-cavewoman action, lots of ArtisticLicenseBiology applied.
* Thus far, this hasn't actually appeared in ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'', but it gets ''referenced'' quite a lot.
** When Sergeant Colon decides to learn about farming in ''Literature/FeetOfClay'', he gets a bit worried about a book called ''Animal Husbandry'', because you hear stories...
** In ''Literature/{{Maskerade}}'' the phrase "the people of Lancre got up with the chickens and went to bed with the cows" has a [[FootnoteFever clarifying footnote]] that this means they went to bed ''at the same time'' as the cows.
** Both the above phrases are analysed in ''Nanny Ogg's Cookbook'', but sadly her thoughts on the matter are covered by notes from the publisher about how that entire section can't be used.
** In ''Literature/TheLastContinent'', Rincewind, perplexed by the presence of FunnyAnimal sheep in Crocodile's tavern, reflects that if you could get [[HalfHumanHybrid a cross between a human and a sheep]], someone would have noticed by now, especially in remote rural areas.
** And there's Bestiality Carter, who like all the Carters has a NonIndicativeName, and is very kind to animals. (The Carter family got their wires crossed; since you can name girls for virtues, well then boys...)
** Feeney from ''Literature/{{Snuff}}'' mentions how his grandfather used to know all the local people's secrets, like how one man had been caught in ''flagrante delicto'' with a common barnyard fowl.
** Subverted in ''Literature/ReaperMan'', in which the prospect of Ludmilla (a werewolf) getting together with Lupine (a wereman) is treated as a perfectly-acceptable InterspeciesRomance, despite him being a normal wolf and her, a normal human, most of the month. The fact that Lupine is fully sentient as a wereman and at the very least pretty smart (if not totally sentient — he seems to be) even as a wolf makes it palatable.
** Implied in a very vague sense between Angua (a werewolf) and Gavin (a wolf — and much smarter than most. According to Angua, he understands over 800 words, and as she points out, "Many people get by on less"). It's not explicitly stated, and it was long since past even if it was, but... well. She's a werewolf, so technically she's as close to wolf as she is to human, but even still.
** And of course, there's the infamous [[BawdySong "Hedgehog Song"]], whose full title is "The Hedgehog Can Never Be Buggered At All". Only a few stanzas are ever sung on the page (mostly by — who else? — [[DirtyOldWoman Nanny Ogg]]), but numerous unofficial versions were created soon after it first appeared in ''Literature/WyrdSisters''.
* In ''Literature/DragonBones'', one of the protagonists wants to emphasize how people would think about the high king if they knew he had a noblewoman tortured. He says they would maybe not morally object to it, but be disgusted, as if the king had had an affair with one of his hunting dogs.
* ''Literature/TheEmigrants'' features a serious version. Arvid the farmhand gets into the bad graces of the farmer's old mother. To dirty Arvid's name, she spreads a rumor that he does unknowable things to one of the cows. This becomes Arvid's motivation to emigrate to America.
* In the ''Literature/ForgottenRealms'' novel ''Elfsong'' by Elaine Cunningham, Danillo Thann has a song mocking the local bandit kingdom that goes:
-->They're far from staid after a raid,\\
The men of Zhentil Keep.\\
They slaughter all the women,\\
As they much prefer the sheep.\\
The Zhents don't eat their ill-got treat,\\
Not one of them's a glutton.\\
So isn't it a wonder,\\
How they always smell of mutton?
* In Apuleius' ''Literature/TheGoldenAss'', the main character (who's been transformed into a donkey) worries about this trope when he's sold to a gang of CampGay crossdressing priests, but nothing bad comes from it. Later in the story, he has sex with a noble matron who actually paid for him, and later is used to inflict a painful death by sex to a vile, adulterous woman, but he's so disgusted by her that he runs away instead.
* In the book ''Literature/GunsGermsAndSteel'', the author recalls a situation where a doctor was stumped as to the illness of his patient. Finally he asked if symptoms had appeared after a sexual experience. The man stammered a bit, but in the end admitted he'd had sex with a sheep while abroad. Unfortunately, the man spoke little English, so all questions and answers [[WomanScorned had to through]] [[UnstoppableRage his wife...]]
* In ''Literature/HarryPotter'', it's mentioned in passing that Dumbledore’s brother Aberforth got in trouble for a “minor scandal” with the Department of Magical Law Enforcement for “using inappropriate charms on a goat.” When an eight-year-old asked in one interview about what kind of charm it was, Rowling was a little shocked.
-->"I think that he was trying to make a goat that was easy to keep clean [laughter], curly horns. That’s a joke that works on a couple of levels. I really like Aberforth and his goats. But you know Aberforth having this strange fondness for goats if you've read book seven, came in really useful to Harry, later on, because a goat, a stag, you know. If you’re a stupid Death Eater, what’s the difference. So, [[ExactWords that is my answer to YOU]]."
* In the second ''Literature/HorusHeresy'' novel, a [[ReligionOfEvil Chaos Undivided]] ritual is described, wherein a preistess has to copulate with a sick pig to attract the favour of Slaanesh (gender-non-conforming deity of hedonism) and Nurgle (god of disease), then the preistess, who had been promised great power from the ritual, is killed and eaten by the other worshippers to attract favor from Tzeench (god of cunning) and Khorne (god of bloodshed).
* In ''Literature/TheHouseOfNight'', [[spoiler:Neferet's consort is the Bull of Darkness]].
* In ''The Journeyer,'' by Gary Jennings, a historical novel about the life and travels of Marco Polo, the slave Nostril first makes his appearance being dragged behind a panicked mare which he had been assigned to groom and to which he had been chained. Nostril's proclivities get more creative as the novel progresses.
* "Klint" by Horst Stern was called in a recension "horse porn" - it's a) one scene b) probably hallucinated (guy is seeing centaurs) and c) for special irony, the author was a reknowned German critical animal filmer who once claimed that love to animals (the un-sexual one) is "social bestiality".
* Played for laughs in ''[[Literature/LambTheGospelAccordingToBiff Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal]]'', when in which the Messiah asks a ship captain about sex ([[ChasteHero as he has been told he won't ever know a woman]]). The captain responds, "Oh, you want to know about [[ClusterFBomb fucking? I've fucked]] women, young boys, sheep, horses, the odd turtle..." Jesus' friend drags him away from the captain, prompting Christ to ask why he can't learn from the captain. The friend can only respond by stuttering, muttering "God, a turtle". ([[ChekhovsGag Throughout the rest of the story, turtle-sex is periodically referenced.]])
** Later in the book, a Hindu man is depicted having sex with a cow, claiming that it is the reincarnation of his wife.
** This is in fact one of the first jokes. As children, Magdalene and Jesus talk to Biff about his job accompanying the local shepherd (as was mentioned in the Bible example). He proudly states he [[ComicallyMissingThePoint kept a vigilant eye out for any abominations while the shepherd went behind the bushes with his favorite sheep]]. His friends have to point out that ''that'' was the abomination he was meant to watch out for.
* In ''Literature/TheLastPictureShow'',the semi-autobiographical novel by Larry McMurtry, in a small Texas town the rural students refuse to join the high-school football team because they all want to rush home and have sex with the cows instead of going to afternoon practice.
* Creator/TedChiang discusses the trope in his short SF "The Lifecycle of Software Objects" - should sex with semiintelligent AIs be alikened to it?
* In "Somebody Else's Magic", one of Creator/MarionZimmerBradley's Literature/{{Lythande}} stories, through the story Lythande constantly hears and sometimes contemplates the insult "You molester of virgin goats!" In the finale when she's confronted by a fellow member of her order who's seen evidence to let him possibly guess she's female (every member of their order has to keep one fact about themselves secret or lose their power), she starts yelling insults at him just to distract him, but when she uses the Virgin Goats one, the reaction on his face makes her immediately realize that that's ''his'' secret.
* ''Literature/TheLongEarth'': The "Beagles" are a canine-like intelligent species from a parallel Earth. When cultural exchange along the Earths lets them discover Terran dogs, they use them as sex toys. (It's an alien culture...)
* In Creator/PhilipJoseFarmer's ''Literature/LordTyger'', when the WildChild protagonist Ras Tyger [[note]]actually raised by a couple of midgets in ape-suits in order to create a kind of real-life Franchise/{{Tarzan}}[[/note]] reaches adolescence he trains a small monkey to "play" with him. The few people who learn about this react pretty much as you'd expect, but he neither understands nor cares.
* Creator/IrvineWelsh's novella 'Lorraine Goes to Livingston' features excerpts [[ShowWithinAShow from a regency romance novel one of the characters is writing]] which features a hero who falls in love with a sheep after losing his wife. The hero's friends eventually have the sheep slaughtered and served to him in order to end the infatuation.
* Hal Yarrow, protagonist of ''Literature/TheLovers'', is accused of this when [[spoiler:his beloved Jeannette is revealed to be a ''[[HumanAlien lalitha]]'', closer to an insect than a human]]. His accuser, [=MacNeff=], is promptly accused of ''planning'' this, as [[spoiler:Hal only found out when he was accused, but [=MacNeff=] knew it and apparently wanted her alive...]]
* Joan Hess's Maggody mysteries contain joking references to this, many of them in regards to how Raz Buchanon dotes upon his pet pedigree sow, Marjorie. Internal monologue by [[spoiler:Robin Buchanon]], just before [[spoiler:her death]], indicates this character had trained the family dog to engage in some highly-questionable behavior.
* ''Literature/MirrorMirror'': The cook laconicly states she had sex with a squid and even shows the suck marks. (It's [[UnreliableNarrator possible]] that the squid wanted her for [[ImAHumanitarian dinner]] and she merely wanted to annoy the priest, though.)
* Creator/CarlHiaasen, ''Native Tongue'', the dolphin scene. (And that's only a blatant example, a list of the more subtle insinuations in all his crime novels would get too long...)
* Played rather seriously in Creator/HonoreDeBalzac's novella ''A Passion in the Desert'' where a man's relationship with a leopard he domesticates is presented in romantic terms.
* In ''Literature/ProtectorOfTheSmall'', lady-knight-in-training Kel and the King's Own have dealings with a herd of centaurs. Some of them went rogue and became bandits, and it's mentioned that the leader of the others is killing the "slaves" — horses — who were mounted by the renegades, believing that being mated with wicked centaurs ruins the horses. It doesn't help that earlier on, that same leader wanted to buy ''Kel'', seeing her as sturdy and possibly able to bear sons of his kind.
* In ''Literature/RedDwarf: Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers'', when Lister reluctantly goes into the android brothel to find Rimmer, he tells the madame he isn't interested in a girl droid. Or a boy droid. Before he can explain further, she says she understands, and the lobby fills up with robot sheep.
* Ferrol Sams' book ''Run With The Horseman'' has the character nicknamed "Moo Cow" for this reason.
* OlderThanPrint: In the [[Literature/TheIcelandicSagas Saga of Halfred the Sigskald]] from the Tenth Century, Halfred has to pay damages to his rival for making a mocking verse about how he "enjoys the herd".
* Creator/JohnDonne's "Satire IV", which skewers gossipy would-be courtly types, references this one:
-->Who wasts in meat, in clothes, in horse, he notes;\\
Who loves Whores, who boyes, and who goats.
* In ''Literature/ShadowOfTheConqueror,'' this is PlayedForLaughs. [[RetiredMonster Daylen]] intentionally invents a rumor at the start of the book that the leaders of a specific foreign country all have sex with goats. This goes on to be a RunningGag.
* Averted in ''Smokescreen'' by Robert Sabbag, where the protagonist is bemused to get a [[TooMuchInformation detailed explanation]] of the need for bestiality while in Columbia. Thanks to the MadonnaWhoreComplex, sex is only available from married women, or prostitutes whom {{Hormone Addled Teenager}}s can't afford. So animals are an accepted substitute (though donkeys are regarded as cleaner than chickens).
* In ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'', [[spoiler:Arya/Jeyne]] is forcibly married to AxCrazy Ramsay Bolton, and while the abuses she suffers are never specified, when she is [[spoiler:rescued]] she says that she'll "do whatever he wants, with him or the dog" before breaking down. There's also hints that Bolton has an unusual attachment to his hunting dogs, who are all female. PlayedForDrama to the extreme (as she can be heard crying throughout the entire castle, constantly). In a more humorous take, while the subtext is clear, the ribald song "The Bear and the Maiden Fair" has subtext implying it's a bear of a ''man'' (i.e. large, lots of coarse hair) who wins said maiden by being good at oral sex, but the text just has him as a plain, if talking, bear. And of course, there's the tale Tormund Giantsbane, Husband to Bears tells of that time he was really drunk...
** Varamyr Sixskins is a skin changer and controls/can enter the mind of three wolves. He has been known to enter the female wolf when its being mounted by the alpha wolf, and the male doing the mounting. Yek.
* In ''Literature/SpellSinger'', as it takes place in a world where humans and anthropomorphic animals live as equals, they see no issue with inter-species relationships. Jon-Tom (who is from our world) is very uncomfortable with this. Flores (who is also from our world) not only does has no culture shock, but she is mentioned to have hooked up with an anthro Rabbit after her character was PutOnABus.
* ''Literature/SplitHeirs'': It's strongly implied that Odo has had sex with his sheep. Gorgarians are also implied to have sex with their mares at times.
* In the ''Literature/StephaniePlum'' book series:
** Stephanie's cousin Vinnie was once "in love" with a duck. Vinnie is the butt of this joke quite often. In one of Stephanie's monologues he's said to sleep with anything: Women, Men, Dogs, Goats...
** There's also a persistent rumor about Joyce's alleged fondness for dogs...
* In ''Literature/{{Tinker}}'', [[spoiler:Chiyo, a Kitsune, is forced by Lord Tomtom to breed with and becomes pregnant by a warg; a sort of pony sized wolf.]]
* Creator/JohnRingo plays with this quite literally in ''[[Literature/PaladinOfShadows Unto the Breach]]'', where one of the village elders essentially comments that [[OnceDoneNeverForgotten it was just one goat...]]
* ''Literature/WetGoddess'' is a story of a (human) college student Zachary Zimmerman falling in love with a bottlenose dolphin Ruby.
* Notably averted in ''Literature/{{Xanth}}.'' The realm's magic makes it possible for nearly any two creatures to produce viable offspring as long as they can make the parts fit — and if they don't fit, you can get an accommodation spell. Most beings tend to be attracted to their own species, but InterspeciesRomance abounds and carries very little stigma. And then there are the [[LovePotion love springs]] — if you drink from one, you immediately fall in love with the next creature of the opposite sex you lay eyes on. When, say, a man and his mare drink from the same spring, the result is a centaur.
* From ''The Xenophobe's Guide to the Welsh'', a joke apparently told by the Welsh themselves:
