Image Description: The image is divided into 3 - the first two images take up a quadrant at the top of the page. The 3rd takes up the bottom 2 quadrants. In the top left image, a grey rock floats in front of a shimmering gold background. In the top right, many bees sit atop a honeycomb that is lit from behind with golden light. At the bottom is a black screen with the open caption reading: soft sparking chimes.

A close up of the head and neck of a brown donkey with large eyes and a calm expression. Two white gloved hands stroke the face and neck of the donkey, one hand coming from each side of the frame. Only the arms of the figures are shown, each one dressed in black so that they seem to recede into the dark background of the barn, the hands appearing disembodied. The barn floor is made of dirt and littered with straw. The background is dark and fades to almost black.

A book cover titled Animalia. The title is in white capital serif letters, just above the centre of the page. There is a large black letter A that splits up the cover into four sections, one on either side of the A, and two inside the letter form. Each section has a different abstract pattern in a dark spot colour. The subtitle “An Anti-Imperial Bestiary for Our Times.” is in green italics under the title. Near the bottom of the cover is the text “Antoinette Burton & Renisa Mawani, Editors.”
