Zoophilia is a paraphilia in which a person experiences a sexual fixation on non-human animals.[1][2]Bestiality instead refers to cross-species sexual activity between humans and non-human animals.[a] Because of the lack of research on the subject, it is difficult to conclude how prevalent bestiality is.[4] Zoophilia on the other hand, was estimated in one study that to be prevalent in 2% of the population in 2021.[5]
