One of the most common zoo flags

Zoophilia is primarily defined as an attraction of a human towards nonhuman animals. 

Basic information

This flag was made at some point before June 24, 2016, by a feline therian and a furry artist. A permission to share her username hasn't yet been obtained. But, according to one of her posts, the colors of the flag represent genders of the zoos: blue stands for binary male and female genders, white stands for genders outside of the binary spectrum, and purple stands for nonbinary genders on the male/female spectrum.

It was uploaded to DeviantArt by a user ZooFlags, an aego-zoosexual and zooromantic trans demigirl therian[1][2]. The date of upload is June 24, 2016[3]. For a long time ZooFlags was considered the original creator of this flag.

History and influence

This flag became the most popular flag out of all uploaded by ZooFlags and is used by zoos in artwork and on social media profiles. A Twitter blogger ZooStruggles erroneously claimed this flag to represent pro-contact zoophiles, while no such thing was specified by the original artist.
