Animal Planet.

'A dog's life.'
Well-known dog show judge David Balfour and his wife today pleaded not guilty to animal cruelty charges.
Balfour, 58, and Daryl Kirsty Reid Balfour, 47 ...
face charges relating to the alleged mistreatment of up to 81 dogs and 161 cats between August 23 last year and March 5.

And:
Four members of a Dannevirke family have pleaded not guilty to a total of 51 animal cruelty charges involving five farm dogs.
Ian Livingstone, 56, Elise Livingstone, 22, David Livingstone, 20, and James Livingstone, 17, appeared in Dannevirke District Court today.


And then there are always those people who will have a little difficulty discriminating:
A Napier man has appeared in court charged with sex offences involving children of both genders, as well as a dog, a cow, a pig and a horse.
The charges allege rape and other indecencies with young girls, sodomy with a cow, bestiality with a pig, an indecent act with a mare, and an indecent assault on a boy.

An interesting assortment of both animal and man.
