Zoopolis: A Political Theory of Animal Rights. My thesis is that, despite the authors’
reticence, considerations in first philosophy regarding humans and nonhumans are relevant to
their goal of building a more comprehensive animal rights philosophy. What is more, I
believe that first philosophy actually can be of help for their proposal, specifically in the form
of phenomenology and phenomenological ontology. For this purpose, I first summarize the
basic outline of Zoopolis’s position and indicate some questions that arise from a strictly
internal consideration of its theses. And secondly, I introduce some aspects in which
phenomenological research would be relevant, along with some particular and provisional
analyses carried out from the standpoint of a phenomenologically-based ontology. Especially,
there is a theme that stands out: the intersubjective realms between humans and nonhumans.
