Huh, and here I'd assumed it was illegal everywhere.

Seems to be semi-reliably illegal in the Anglosphere (though US states vary from no law to misdemeanor to felony), legal in the Scandosphere (sorry).

says legal in a few countries, like the usual Nordic and Dutch suspects, and legal but porn isn't in Germany, and assume it's illegal anywhere else. Though allegedly legal in Mexico, in the table.

I'd note this all seems to support the idea that moving to secular morality has a high change of legalizing bestiality, i.e. the Christianoid panic is accurate for once.
