Pologimany infringes on others rights within the relationship, bestiality is illegal because an animal can not give consent, and pedophilia does as well.
How does polygamy infringe on the rights of those within the relationship? Polygamy is just a "marriage" of more than two people, who together, unanimously agree to be "married". (Since we're talking about rights, I presume we're discussing legal "marriage".)

In the legal sense maybe, but marriage has always been, in the christian tradition as well as many other religions, strictly man-to-woman.
