* Oddly deconstructed/ignored when it comes to ''ComicBook/DoomPatrol'' villains The Brain and Monsieur Mallah during Grant Morrison's run. The former is normally a disembodied BrainInAJar and the latter is a scientifically evolved genius gorilla. When The Brain was temporarily placed in a robot body, they confessed their love for each other. The species difference is rarely, if ever, mentioned. All that gets mentioned is that they are both male. What's also rarely mentioned is the Brain is the one who gave Mallah his enhanced intelligence, after essentially raising and educating him for over a decade. [[spoiler:As of ''Unstoppable Doom Patrol'' #1, Mallah turned against Brain and murdered him while coldly stating whatever they had "turned toxic" long ago.]]

* On the ''WebVideo/DreamSMP'', according to Fundy, he's the son of Wilbur, a presumed human, and a ''salmon'' named Sally. [[HotSkittyOnWailordAction How this is done]] is [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext never explained canonically]], and when the fandom suggests that Sally was a shapeshifter to make it sound more believable, Wilbur the content creator ''[[{{Jossed}} rejects the notion]]'', confirming that yes, he (somehow) fucked a fish, and he has [[NeverLiveItDown never been able to live it down]] in the fandom ever since.
-->'''Fundy:''' Uh, basically [...] I wasn't alive during these times, but I think, um... [[BrutalHonesty Wilbur fucked a salmon]].\\
'''Jack:''' Wow, you really— that's disgusting!
** Wilbur's relationship with Sally the Salmon clearly had an effect on his mind—even while he's dead, [[OurGhostsAreDifferent Ghostbur, his spectral counterpart]], continues to show sexual attraction to salmon. Expectedly, this makes his family very uncomfortable.

** And in ''Film/TheMerryWivesOfReno'' (1934), a rancher seems more interested in his prized sheep than his blonde wife.

* The infamous BawdySong, "The Good Ship Venus" has a verse about the ship's dog, Rover. You can pretty much guess what the [[HornySailor perverted sailor]] narrators do to the hound in question.

* In ''WebAnimation/{{HFIL}}'' it's suggested bestiality is the ''one'' line Cell won't cross.

Want to mark a character as a sexual deviant, but confronted with the fact that [[DiscreditedTrope Discredited tropes]] like DepravedHomosexual, DepravedBisexual, and PsychoLesbian are [[PetPeeveTrope Pet-Peeve Tropes]]? Not quite up for the moral gravity of tropes like RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil, VillainousIncest, or PaedoHunt? Simple. Imply that they have a sexual interest in animals. Usually ''farm'' animals, since common pets still might be too squicky for some.

* The infamous BawdySong, "The Good Ship Venus" has a verse about the ship's dog, Rover. You can pretty much guess what the pirate narrators do to the hound in question.

* Myth/NorseMythology: Loki ReallyGetsAround. He is the mother (yes, mother) of Odin's eight-legged horse Sleipnir. (That was his way of distracting the workhorse of the Jötun who built Asgard, to cheat him out of his payment.)
* Myth/ClassicalMythology: The Minotaur was born when Poseidon punished King Minos by making his wife fall in love with the bull Minos had been supposed to sacrifice to the gods but hadn't.

This trope also shows up in regional humour as a way to mock other regions that are considered AcceptableTargets. For example, in UsefulNotes/{{Britain}}, jokes of this sort (especially regarding sheep) commonly get levied at UsefulNotes/{{Wales}} and UsefulNotes/{{Scotland}}. Meanwhile in the Southern Hemisphere, UsefulNotes/{{Australia}}ns and UsefulNotes/{{New Zealand}}ers like to accuse each other of excessive fondness for sheep. (As you may have guessed, sheep farming makes up a big chunk of the economy in Wales, Scotland, Australia, and New Zealand, all of which have higher populations of sheep than humans.) Latin Americans get this a lot too, especially with regards to donkeys. Sometimes also alleged toward Bedouins and other groups who have long nights alone in the desert with no company except goats and camels. The American version is usually aimed at "rednecks" from the DeepSouth, although the [[DownOnTheFarm rural Midwest]] and [[HollywoodNewEngland northern New England]] get some ribbing too. In Russia, the regions most commonly accused of this are the Caucasus and Central Asia. Germany's target of choice is Austria; Austria's target of choice are people from Vorarlberg, Tyrol and other rural alpine states.

* In ''ComicBook/BatmanDarkAllegiances'', an {{Elseworld}}s story set in the 1930s, one character keeps insinuating that there is a blue movie of actress Kitty Graymalkin (a.k.a. Comicbook/{{Catwoman}}) having unnatural relations with a Rottweiler. It's also implied that this is the film that was made while she was blackout drunk and being used as blackmail against her.

* In the second volume of Creator/AlanMoore's ''Comicbook/LeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen'', Mina Harker and Alan Quartermain meet Doctor Moreau's animal people. The polar bear Moreau is cranky and violent, and Moreau states that they calm him down by paying a local lady to have coitus with him. "A matronly lady, a grandmother I believe..."[[note]]This is a joke about the notorious "schoolkids' issue" of the 1960s hippie counterculture magazine ''Oz'', which led to the publishers being prosecuted for obscenity — a particularly controversial item in the issue was a collage comic in which ComicStrip/RupertBear was pasted into a pornographic comic by Creator/RobertCrumb, apparently having sex with a Crumb character called "Gypsy Granny".[[/note]]
* In the ''Comicbook/PowerGirl'' series, it's strongly implied that Satanna had sex with the Ultra-Humanite after he first was transplanted into his gorilla body, much to PG's disgust.

* Deconstructed in Creator/AlanMoore's ''Comicbook/SwampThing'' run. After pictures of her and (the admittedly anthropomorphic) Swamp Thing are shown in newspapers, Abigail Cable is arrested for her relationship and charged with "crimes against nature", the laws that would usually be used to prosecute the aforementioned screwers of farm animals. She's arrested, fired from her job, her reputation is ruined, everyone starts treating her like a horrible sex offender, and Swampy is forced to cover almost the entirety of Gotham in greenery in order to secure her release. It is up to Batman to point out what would happen if the authorities arrest everyone in Franchise/TheDCU who has a relationship with a non-human, and it's the delivery that just ''nails'' it as a '''literal''' SpaceWhaleAesop. Eventually we '''''will''''' run into intelligent non-humans, and perhaps the biggest part of WhatMeasureIsANonHuman is whether or not we believe them — or they believe us — worthy of [[ThePowerOfLove love]].
-->'''Batman:''' I '''mean''', if you want to take this all the '''way''', '''non-humanity''' doesn't ''end'' with the ''Swamp Thing''. Let me '''see...''' You'll possibly have to arrest '''ComicBook/{{Hawkman}}...''' and '''ComicBook/{{Metamorpho}}...''' ...And there's also '''ComicBook/{{Starfire}}''', from the '''[[Comicbook/TeenTitans Titans]]'''. '''Her''' race evolved from '''{{cat|Girl}}s''', I believe... The '''ComicBook/MartianManhunter''', obviously. {{Comicbook/Captain|Atom}} '''[[Comicbook/CaptainAtom Atom]]'''... And then of course there's '''what's-his-name'''... the one who lives in '''[[Franchise/{{Superman}} Metropolis]]'''.

* A famous joke and former page quote is replicated nearly word for word in ''Comicbook/{{Transmetropolitan}}'' (except it's a janitor in a convention hall and not a farmer) with throwaway character "Bill Chimpfucker". Before this, there's a throwaway line about how Spider Jerusalem's cat [[CatsAreMean tried to have sex with Channon's boyfriend]].

* Mr. Rictus from the Creator/MarkMillar comic mini-series ''Comicbook/{{Wanted}}''. (In the Brazilian translation, it's changed to kangaroos, since [[KangaroosRepresentAustralia he's Australian]].)

** This eventually led to the famous ''Comicbook/{{Nextwave}}'' cover parody of the ''ComicBook/CivilWar2006'' event, which read "Mark Millar Licks Goats". Millar apparently took it in stride.
* In ''Franchise/WonderWoman'' ComicBook/New52 run, the First-Born was a humanoid deity that bred with hyenas and spawned a cadre of [[SemiDivine demigod]] [[HalfHumanHybrid hyena-man]] that serve as [[{{Mooks}} his foot soldiers]].
* Also gets a deconstructive nod in ''Comicbook/XMen.'' Beast's already blue and furry, but when he undergoes a secondary mutation that leaves him looking more feline than hominid, his girlfriend breaks up with him because the tabloids start comparing the relationship to bestiality.

Not to be confused with InterspeciesRomance, where the two participants are both intelligent creatures, though sometimes such a romance is treated in-universe as if it was this trope due to FantasticRacism. The UsefulNotes/FurryFandom tends to get upset when people confuse the two, and you can't blame them - the overwhelming majority of people in the fandom are ''staunchly'' against zoophilia in general.

* In ''Anime/NerimaDaikonBrothers'', both Ichiro and Yukika are ''very'' attracted to [[PandaingToTheAudience Pandaikon]].

* ''Film/VaseDeNoces'' aka ''[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin The Pig Fucking Movie]]'', has a rare example of fiction using the trope for non-comedic reasons. WebVideo/BrowsHeldHigh had a field day discussing the trope, and getting enraged at how the filmmakers [[AuthorsSavingThrow tried to justify]] but ultimately just wanted to film a pig sodomization.

* Creator/EllenDeGeneres did a bit about folks objecting to gay marriage stating "next thing, [[SlipperySlopeFallacy people will be marrying goats]]" and wondering why they always go there first thing. "Mom, Dad... [[JustForPun this is Billy]]."

* Played for horror in ''WebOriginal/HamstersParadise'' where one faction of a race of sapient, warmongering hamster descendants known as the Harmsters attempt to play EvilutionaryBiologist and attempt to interbreed with their domesticated beasts called Brutes to become a stronger species. Since the Brutes are also Harmsters that had been enslaved and [[FormerlySapientSpecies selectively bred into non-sapient animals]], they are able to viably reproduce: but the experiment [[GoneHorriblyRight worked a little too well]] and the entire faction degraded into the gigantic, primal, cannibalistic [[FrazettaMan Frazettas.]]

* In ''Franchise/{{Batman}}: Dark Allegiances'', an {{Elseworld}}s story set in the 1930s, one character keeps insinuating that there is a blue movie of actress Kitty Graymalkin (a.k.a. Comicbook/{{Catwoman}}) having unnatural relations with a Rottweiler. It's also implied that this is the film that was made while she was blackout drunk and being used as blackmail against her.

* A favorite of Creator/GarthEnnis, particularly in ''ComicBook/{{Preacher}}'', where Jesus de Sade, the world's wealthiest and most accomplished pervert, is offered an armadillo on a silver platter by his manservant. De Sade is also stated to have sodomized all the city zoo's larger quadrupeds, leading to the armadillo incident above. Also, during the party thrown by De Sade, we see a guy in the stocks surrounded by sheep, saying "Do it, you sluts!".
** ''ComicBook/{{Preacher}}'' is chock full of people having sex with weird stuff, including but not limited to: A chicken, a salmon, an armadillo, [[CargoShip a birthday cake]] and a [[NauseaFuel bunch of meat stacked up to vaguely resemble a giant woman]]. At least 3 of these by the same character. Though the one sheep we see is a case of NotWhatItLooksLike — the newly-vampired Cassidy jumped from underwater without looking where he was going, landing on a sheep's rump and holding on very tightly, just in front of the owner.

* In Creator/ChrisFleming's "Theater Kids" car rant, he says that theatre showstoppers like "[[Theatre/{{Wicked}} Defying Gravity]]" and ''[[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Let It Go]]" will get theater kids so worked up that eventually they'll sing a song with AnAesop that is totally ''not'' okay, and sings an example that culminates in the singer singing that they're "gonna hook up with my horse".

Compare ExtremeOmnisexual, AnythingThatMoves, PaedoHunt, RobosexualsAreCreeps, and ILoveTheDead for other disturbing paraphilias. When it’s an animal with a completely different animal, then it’s HotSkittyOnWailordAction. A {{Subtrope}} of UnequalPairing. If biology works like that in their universe, it may lead to a HalfHumanHybrid.

* An extra chapter of ''Manga/{{Adekan}}'' has [[AnythingThatMoves Anri]] trying to seduce a panda.

** And then there's.... that one guy. [[ParentalIncest Who first time had a sex with his mother when he was ten]], and things go downhill from there; 14 members of his [[BrotherSisterIncest immediate family]], [[AnythingThatMoves several thousand people]], including [[{{Squick}} hundreds of prepubescent children of both sexes]], and [[ExtremeOmnisexual a whole list of various species of animals]].

** Artie references the same ([[AnythingThatMoves probably]]) [[http://concessioncomic.com/index.php?pid=20090529 incident]] [[BrickJoke much later]].

* Tomato from ''[[http://www.agameoffools.com A Game of Fools]]'' is [[http://agameoffools.com/comic_76.html pretty]] [[http://agameoffools.com/comic_101.html heavily]] [[http://agameoffools.com/comic_141.html implied]] to swing this way, among [[AnythingThatMoves many, many other bizarre fetishes]].

* In ''Webcomic/KeychainOfCreation'', building on the ''TabletopGame/{{Exalted}}'' example above, Marena, an AnythingThatMoves fox-totem Lunar, is quizzed by renegade Deathknight Secret on how many people she's had sex with. Her response ends with the memorable line, "Define people."

** In that same comic, Denmark expressed interest in banging a sheep too. In HIS defense, he was drunk, but still, it IS [[AnythingThatMoves Denmark]] we're talking about here.

* On the ''LetsPlay/DreamSMP'', according to Fundy, he's the son of Wilbur, a presumed human, and a ''salmon'' named Sally. [[HotSkittyOnWailordAction How this is done]] is [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext never explained canonically]], and when the fandom suggests that Sally was a shapeshifter to make it sound more believable, Wilbur the content creator ''[[{{Jossed}} rejects the notion]]'', confirming that yes, he (somehow) fucked a fish, and he has [[NeverLiveItDown never been able to live it down]] in the fandom ever since.

* A famous joke and former page quote is replicated nearly word for word in ''Comicbook/{{Transmetropolitan}}'' (except it's a janitor in a convention hall and not a farmer) with throwaway character "Bill Chimpfucker".

* Music/{{Blink 182}} has the song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvyl82t9IuY I Wanna Fuck A Dog In The Ass]]. On the ''Mark, Tom, and Travis Show'', the banter between songs includes Tom claiming that he will get sexier as the show goes on due to the heat in the arena and the exertion of performing a concert. Mark speculates that Tom will aso get fatter and fatter, "Because dog semen is very high in calories." "Yeah, don't eat dog semen, kids; [[ComicallyMissingThePoint we hear it's the number one cause of bad breath]]."
* "Baby Ice Dog" by Music/BlueOysterCult, in which it is implied that the narrator not only slept with, but also [[CrossesTheLineTwice pimped out his husky.]]
* From John Butler's "Hand of the Almighty"
** - Now Ray was full aware/that some sheep were over there/and he knew them in the biblical sense!"

* In Data's "Don't Sing" video, we see a guy get a beej by a woman clad in a giant fur coat [[AutoErotica while driving]], which leads to him crashing his car, all while being intercut between shots of many screwed-up things. At the very end, it's revealed that [[spoiler:the woman was really a dog.]]

* Played for comedy in '' Theatre/TwistedTheUntoldStoryOfARoyalVizier'' with Prince Achmed, who, after being attacked by the Princess' tiger, becomes known as "Tiger Fucker" to his people. [[BerserkButton He doesn't like it.]]

** This eventually led to the famous ''Comicbook/{{Nextwave}}'' cover parody of the ''ComicBook/CivilWar'' event, which read "Mark Millar Licks Goats". Millar apparently took it in stride.

* In ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero'', Louise famously accuses Saito of being willing to poke [[http://www.japanator.com/elephant/photo.phtml?post_key=8421&photo_key=4699 anything that stays still long enough]]: "Maid, dog, cat, goat!"
* ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic: The Second Raid'' has a scene where Gates was apparently masturbating to the sight of ''kittens'' (that or he was watching something else and just switched channels when he was interrupted).

* ''[[LightNovel/ImABehemothAnSRankedMonster I'm a Behemoth, an S-Ranked Monster, but Mistaken for a Cat, I Live as an Elf Girl's Pet]]'': Aria, an Elf girl, finds the titular Behemoth, a reincarnated unnamed knight, who appears like a kitten and was mortally wounded. After being nursed back to health, he develops UndyingLoyalty and becomes her companion. When he's mistakenly identified as an Elemental Cat, Aria is warned that the species can crossbreed and "attack" their owners when in heat. Tama is '''floored''' when Aria shows ''zero'' problems with this and even tells him they'll "nyan nyan" when he's bigger. What's more, the interaction between the two of them is viewed both in-and out-of universe if sometimes put off by [[CovertPervert Aria's kinks]].

* Played with, but also treated seriously and ultimately [[AvertedTrope averted]] in ''Manga/GuruGuruPonChan,'' a story about a puppy who gains the power to transform into a girl thanks to mad science and falls in love with a human boy. He likes her as well, but worries that he'll become known as "the pervert who does it with dogs" if the relationship becomes serious. [[spoiler:In the end, TheyDo, they even get married, and it turns out that (almost) EverybodyKnewAlready and approves of their relationship.]]
