The idea that homosexuality is unnatural is idiotic. As you rightly point out, there are animals that engage in such behavior. It has been observed in a variety of animals. In fact, it is quite common. So it is obviously natural.
I think claiming that homosexuality is unnatural is normally just a bullshit attempt by religionists to pretend that their antigay bigotry is not simply an arbitrary religious rule. They want it to somehow make sense in order to impose their religious views on others.
It means they are lying fascist assholes who have no regard for the truth.
Furthermore, even if it were unnatural, that would not mean that it must be bad. It is unnatural to have a doctor set your leg if you break it. It is unnatural to wear clothing or live in a house or apartment. There are many unnatural things that people do, that are not generally regarded as bad, and are usually regarded as right and proper.
