Editing Zoophilia (section)

=== General ===
Three key terms commonly used in regards to the subject—''zoophilia'', ''bestiality'', and ''zoosexuality''—are often used somewhat interchangeably. Some researchers distinguish between zoophilia (as a persistent sexual interest in animals) and bestiality (as sexual acts with animals), because bestiality is often not driven by a sexual preference for animals.<ref name="ranger">{{Cite journal|last1=Ranger|first1=R.|last2=Fedoroff|first2=P.|year=2014|title=Commentary: Zoophilia and the Law|journal=Journal of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law Online|volume=42|issue=4|pages=421–426|url=https://jaapl.org/content/42/4/421.full|pmid=25492067}}</ref> Some studies have found a preference for animals is rare among people who engage in [[Sexual Contact with Animals|sexual contact with animals]].<ref name="earls">{{Cite journal|last1=Earls|first1=C.
