WASHINGTON — The Pentagon says sex with animals would still be illegal if Congress repeals a military rule on sodomy.

Conservative groups are upset over a proposed change in the defense bill that would eliminate a code that states that any person who engages in “unnatural carnal copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex or with an animal is guilty of sodomy.”

The Pentagon said Friday that animal abuse, including bestiality, would be considered “prejudicial to good order and discipline” and covered by another section of the military code.
