Protecting Animals Within and Across Borders: Extraterritorial Jurisdiction and the Challenges of Globalization is a book by legal scholar Charlotte E. Blattner, published by Oxford University Press in New York in 2019. According to its copyright page, it is based on her 2016 doctoral thesis at the University of Basel and deals with animal welfare law, extraterritoriality and universal jurisdiction.

Blattner, who collects Dana’s work, contacted her and asked to use one of her paintings on the cover. Blattner was a visiting researcher with the Animal Law & Policy Program at Harvard Law School from 2018 to 2020.
Dana painted Pecking Order in July 2016, in acrylic directly on a print of a black-and-white street photograph by Robert Doisneau, 13 × 10 in. A line of children walks hand in hand across the cobblestones; Dana gave each child a white chicken head with a red comb and yellow beak, and set them against a band of turquoise and green paint.
