Ohio Senate unanimously approves anti-bestiality bill

COLUMBUS, Ohio - The Ohio Senate unanimously approved a bill Wednesday outlawing bestiality.

The bill , which still must clear the Ohio House to take effect, has three parts:

It prohibits individuals from knowingly engaging in, promoting or aiding in sex acts with an animal. It also prohibits the sale or purchase of animals for sexual purposes.
It allows animals found to be used for sexual purposes to be seized and impounded.
It allows for a court to either not allow the animal to be returned to its owner or require the offender to go to psychological counseling.

Ohio remains one of 11 states in the U.S. that does not have anti-bestiality laws.
