I am becoming addicted to whatever that white rabbit puts in the hookah!

The Art of Album Covers

Left: Photo by John Dominis (LIFE 1966) "Leopard and Baboon".

Right: Used (without the leopard, which lost its spot) for the cover of Rip Rig + Panic's "God" (Virgin Records, 1981).

The backstory is that the leopard was captured and released near baboons so the encounters could be photographed. (https://www.life.com/animals/the-leopard-and-the-baboon-anatomy-of-a-classic-staged-life-photo/)
