This sculpture features a selection of wildlife native to the pinyon and juniper woodland habitats of Colorado. Many of these species are currently threatened, and the artwork aims to raise awareness about them. As with all the sculptures, the ceramic work will feature relief elements that protrude up to half an inch from the background, adding an appealing tactile component to the art.

The wildlife depicted on the east-facing side, from top to bottom, includes: Pinyon Jay, Juniper, Common Collared Lizard, Evening Grosbeak, Kinnikinnic, Pinyon Pine Seeds, Brown Tarantula
