A new sculpture is coming to Pride Promoters Park, featuring five native Florida species relaxing on a bench together — and Coral Springs officials want residents’ help naming it.

The $120,000 bronze sculpture was designed by internationally acclaimed duo Gillie and Marc, whose works can also be found in cities such as New York, London and Sydney, Australia.

The sculpture is titled Wild Connections, but the characters featured in it — an eagle, panther, alligator, turtle and rabbit — need names.

Anyone can fill out the brief survey and cast their votes for one of three naming options for each animal.
