A Pennsylvania man thought he found love when someone answered his online personal ad looking for sex with a horse — but all he found was a trip to the glue factory.

Michael Crawford was nabbed in a “To Catch a Predator”-style sting, when a sheriff’s deputy lured him to Phoenix by pretending to be a horse owner ready to fulfill his equine-sex fantasy.

The eager 68-year-old — who told cops he has been traveling the country since the 1970s looking for horse sex — flew to the meeting last Friday.

He was taken to a ranch by an undercover officer and introduced to two horses, one of which he chose to have sex with, a Maricopa County Sheriff’s Department spokesman said Monday.

Crawford was busted on felony bestiality charges.

“Perversion has reached a new level,” Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio said in a statement.

It was the eighth arrest for bestiality made by sheriff’s deputies in the past five years, his office said.
