Sexually abusing an unwilling participant?

Imagine a guy having "sex" with a sheep. Is he raping that sheep? Is that a morally wrong action?
Or does it not apply to inter-species relations?
If not, then how can it be universal? Or absolute?

Let me clarify this to make sure I am addressing it correctly.. are you postulating then that it is not universally wrong or bad for a human male to rape a sheep? And would you then hold that the only alternative is then true, "it is sometimes good for human males to rape sheep"?
Thanks for making it clear for me

And can you think of any circumstance that would make human to human rape a "good" thing, or do you assert that it is "always wrong despite social opinions"?
Do you recall what was revealed the day the music died?
