Bestiary final project (art history)

Bestiaries were a particular kind of book written and illustrated in the Middle Ages that collected all kinds of information about various animals. You will be discussing bestiaries in your sections as well as viewing online materials about them that will help you with this project. Your assignment will be to create your own bestiary by choosing 5 different animals and providing an illustration and informational text (minimum of 250 words) for each. Although you will be using these medieval texts as models, you should also endeavor to make your bestiary current by including and writing about animals that are important to you personally and/or are the focus of 21st-century issues/concerns. Your bestiary must include a bibliography and references, and you must use at least 2 sources for each animal.
