We have both Javelinas, the small pig-like hoofed mammal of the family Tayassuidae also called a peccary found in the sculpture, and Pronghorn Antilopes, the fastest land animal, when considering sustained speed of a maximum 61 miles per hour of the species artiodactyl mammal. The plant is an agave or "century plant" of the genus monocots, which puts forth a large shoot as depicted to pollinate, and having thus flowered one time, then dies. The plant the javelina has nibbled on in the sculpture is called a prickly pear cactus called Opuntia.

"The Town of Prescott Valley received a generous donation from the Jenkins Family which has funded multiple projects for the arts in our community. During the second half of 2021, the Town of Prescott Valley witnessed two monumental bronze sculptures installed at opposite corners of the Prescott Valley Civic Center. The Jenkins Obelisk, dedicated on August 28, 2021, was created by Ed Reily and his team at the Bronzesmith Fine Art Foundry and Gallery and is located on the corner of E Skoog Blvd and Lakeshore Dr. in front of the library. Sharing the Land, also on E Skoog Blvd and Lakeshore located in front of the police station, was created by sculptor Tom White of Tom White Studio. We are pleased to have these sculptures as the newest additions to the Town of Prescott Valley's Art at the Center collection.
