The country’s agriculture minister said that one of the main reasons for the decision was because of the international damage done to Denmark’s reputation.
Currently humans and animals can still have sex but they want to follow Germany and Norway’s example and outlaw it. Dan Jørgensen, told Danish newspaper Ekstra Bladet: ‘I have decided that we should ban sex with animals.
‘That is happening for numerous reasons. The most important is that in the vast majority of cases it is an attack against the animals.
‘And under all circumstances, any doubts about it should go to the animals’ benefit. They naturally cannot say no to going along with it. Therefore it should be banned.’
A survey found 67 per cent of people agreed with the ban. (Errm… what about the other one in three people??)
It will be introduced by 2015 and should stem the growth in animal sex tourism to the country.
