How to set a clickable region for an ImageView?

Question

I have 2 ImageViews which have AnimationDrawable backgrounds to animate a box opening and closing when you click on it. The 2 images are slightly overlapping (the transparent area) so they can be closer together.

The problem this is causing is that I am unable to click on regions of the 1st image where the 2nd image (transparent area) is overlapping.

Is there a way to set a clickable region of an ImageView?

I don't think that you can "define a clickable region on an ImageView" like you would do in HTML with a map. IMO the best you could do is draw a canvas on top of your ImageView with the same size, and give it an onClick method. Now, I don't know everything, so maybe I'm mistaken.
