Countries in which at least one human-animal marriage has been documented

Human-animal marriage, i.e., marriage between zoophile humans and non-human animals, is not recognized in law by any country at present, although historically people have married animals as part of religious traditions or to bring good luck, often involving elaborate ceremonies.[citation needed] Such marriages as are allowed by tradition, or within a culture, are often symbolic or ritual, rather than the more usual recognition of a relationship.

Folklore, myth, and popular culture

  • A Korean folktale, sometimes known as The Silkworm, tells how silk originated following the King's daughter spiritually marrying a horse, in completion of a promise made in times of trouble. In the tale, the princess was reborn as a silkworm, a creature whose appearance and mannerisms superficially were said to resemble that of a horse. (From Chonsol Ttara Samch'olli, retold by Heinz Insu Fenkl) [1] [2]
  • Japanese folk tales tell of many who married a kitsune in human form.
  • A Cheyenne myth "The Girl Who Married a Dog", states that the group of seven stars known as the Pleiades originated from seven puppies which a Cheyenne chief's daughter gave birth to after mysteriously being visited by a dog in human form to whom she vowed "Wherever you go, I go". [1]
  • The Cree people of Waskaganish, Canada, tell the tale of "The Girl and the Dog", in which a girl living alone is visited by a talking dog who she jestingly agrees to marry. The dog hunted for her and she had a hybrid offspring. Finally the woman had human visitors, and resolved to marry one of them, and was killed by the dog in her sleep, out of jealousy. [3] (told by John Blackned)
  • One Inuit origin-myth states that the human races originated from the offspring of a girl who married a dog. [4]
  • White-Bear-King-Valemon or The Polar Bear King is a Norwegian folktale about a woman who marries a king cursed to take the form of a polar bear.
