That kind of depends where you are from. The issue with bestiality usually is the question about consent. Most states (countries) want to avoid that issue, so they ban all of it. Some countries however take the behavior of pets in account (dogs seem to like shagging your leg) and permit it. Some other countries have other, more serious legal issues, and have not even gotten to dealing with animal sex yet.

As with any post-discussion hub, it will eventually be surpassed by some newer technology. The technorati will move on, and be slowly followed by the content creators, and then the general moochmass. Others will simply post less and less as offline activities take precedence in their lives. Those who are left will check the front page less frequently, and contribute to fewer threads. Presiding over the ageing husk will lose its attraction, and it will eventually be sold in a bulk lot with other aggregation platforms to a late-comer monetization corporation hopelessly out of touch with the modern world. The interface and subreddits will fill up with spam and dancing adverts, driving away the few remaining posters. For a long period, the only activity will be spambots warbling to each other in the deepening twilight, with occasional firefly sparks from ancient posters stubbornly clinging to the dessicated corpse.
As each owning company fails, goes under, and fire-sales its assets, Reddit's moldering bones will follow, being swept into level after level of virtualization. Years later, an intern assigned to catalog a corporation's library of preserved low-value assets will assess the last 500 posts as being worthless, and delete the process. Months afterwards, someone will try to post to Reddit, realize the domain name doesn't go anywhere, and spend half an hour trying to track down a site admin, only to find out that there hadn't been any since three legal takeovers ago.
Someone will have saved an archive, and it will be put up on the net for a while as a curio from yesteryear. There will be a handful of posts on whatever modern framework is in place, and a short flurry of people saying "Hey, I used to use that - who remembers /r/spacedicks?"
Two years later, with no-one visiting the archive site, it will fall quietly offline, and Reddit will pass gently into memory, myth, and legend.

Are you sure Reddit is universally white-listed? I forgot that I even had adblock (it's been so long since I last saw an ad on my computer, I never think about them), and I haven't seen an ad on Reddit in a long time.
To test, I just disabled it for "reddit.com/*" domains, and saw the sidebar ads for the first time in a long while. Upon reenabling it, the ads were blocked again. I have it disabled now, but I don't think it's universally white-listed.

I used digg religiously back in the day. The downfall was definitely when digg v3 was released. The true problem was the voting algorithm was drastically changed and I believe advertisers were able to, "sponsor" articles to the front page. This resulted in a massive backlash by the users. I remember days when the the vast majority of front page articles were all about moving to reddit in revolt.
Initially I didn't want to leave because I thought reddit looked too old and didn't have a user friendly interface. Once the community left I had no option but to go to reddit since the content here was significantly better. Really goes to show that content is king. As far as design, you just need the basic user friendly stuff.

I'm going from memory here, so please correct me if I'm wrong...
reddit is owned by Condé Nast, which is a division of Advance Publications, which owns/operates a bunch of magazines, websites, and applications for smartphones/tablets. If Condé Nast (and/or Advance Publications) decides to sell reddit, that could easily be the death of it.
This site thrives on anonymity, be that good or bad, and if that is taken away I believe it will kill the userbase. The users here have an inherent expectation of privacy.
Say Condé Nast sells to NewsCorp (FOX News' parent company), and NewsCorp decides to turn it into MySpace 2.0, how many of you will stick around?
Websites don't die on their own; they are forgotten and become obsolete until they're killed by the owner.

There will be a confrontation for the ages. The tension between internet superpowers will result in one massive, explosive collision. The internet will be a desolate landscape while the monsters collide in a struggle for dominance, and even survival.
4chan entered the ring wielding a fire-infused sword with impressive speed. Reddit relied on the hand-to-hand combat and self-replication. 9gag showed up to hope that the internet will not be destroyed but will probably die in the crossfire. Facebook arrived to the battle weeks later. And Memebase will fire kitten cannons as it could not do much else.
Reddit and 4chan clash, leaving a destructive wake that no one could forsee or escape. While 4chan threw some new impressive memes, Reddit was able to absorb every attack and rebuttal with REPOST. REPOST after REPOST after REPOST. 4chan did not know what to do, so it did the only thing it knew how.
It took the internet to the next level.
Days seemed like hours, years like weeks. The fabric of the space-time continuum was stretching thinner as the battle raged on, forcing several stars in the Milky Way to simultaneously collapse. The earth shook, the heavens trembled, and all hope was lost.
Then out of nowhere, the NSA stepped in. "ALL CONTENTZ MuSt bE PREEAPROVD!!!" 4chan lowered its flame-licked sword and Reddit loosened the grasp on 4chan's sword arm as they realized who the true enemy was.
NSA struck first. The internet hung in the balance, sitting in a white void while the duo faced their largest competitor. Lurkers and contributors and reposters alike congregated to see which power would emerge and whether NSA would seek the capture and slavery of its opponents or total annihilation.
The onlookers stared silently, awaiting for the end that has yet to be written
TLDR; Epic Space Battle

My educated guess is that Reddit's fate will be what Slashdot's was, but even worse.
Reddit is sold to a big company. The new owners dictate new rules for running the site. Now we're in here for the money; we're gonna see integration to one of the parent company's services and someone gets a great idea: let's sell upvotes and "positive stories"! Advertisers are jizzing their pants for this, but you can't read on it on Reddit, because every time someone upvotes a story with suspicions of Reddit selling itself out, it's automatically removed.
Eventually the core user base leaves, and so does the original employees, after they become disgusted of what Reddit has become. During following years, what once used to be Reddit, has now become another... damnit, I don't remember the name of that site. The cool one we used to hang out on.
See?
I hope none of this ever happens.

From what I can derive from /u/Greenmask's analysis thereis cancer like scum growing beneath Reddit which will one day take over the website completely, they are distinguished currently by both their Fedoras and Neckbeards but after they have complete control will split into rival infighting factions:
Fedoras: are the type of Redditor who enjoys the idea of his quirky "so random" personality, he strives to show off his randomness and individuality in all facets of life because he so different and interesting compared to "normals", identifying themselves as pansexual and beyond simple worldly debates about science, politics and religion because their mind is the only real place in this subjective universe and their's is so special.
Often seen on Reddit sharing their recent erotic Sonic-My little Pony crossover fan fiction.
Prime example of a Fedora:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4QBRgyitFs
Neckbeards: on the other hand reject the Fedoras clinging to subjectivity, for they are superbly rational and enlightened by their own intelligence not some phony ideals, for them the world is completely objective and they understand the objective reality perfectly, hence they are seen destroying pathetic arguments about Religion and Politics with their undeniably scientific proofs showing the other side to be following some false dogma that must be ripped apart by the true objectional inquisition.
Often seen on Reddit showing their new logic equation proving the non-existence of God.

I reckon it will end with some stupid lawsuit.
Something will get posted that will annoy the wrong people. Most probably after the government fatcats gain control of the ISP's and start to censor content.
Then Reddit will be viewed as a platform for extremists to air their views and therefore a threat to the national security of all countries.
They will then get LOADS of Lawyers to threaten Reddit Towers, and the decision will be made to shut it down, or live in a cardboard box in a jail for the rest of their lives.
That or Zombies.
Either Way. Either Way's fine.

Not with a bang, but with a whimper.
I think it will just slowly bleed to death, as more and more people move on to another medium. Just like most of such websites die.

EXactly. It will die a natural death when something else comes along to replace it.

Same as Facebook. Too many kids and to many old people at the same time.
