That is not found as cave art. It would probably not be very well
preserved.

Seriously, joking aside -- does anyone have any references or sources?

It would be a real contribution to understanding about the nature of those
people.

Depending on the role taken and the kinds of activities, their context, we
might be able to determine things about their culture.

Sex with animals has, historically, played a role in ritual and ceremony in
-- for example -- Pharaonic Egypt.
