“Somewhat similar to the Pangool, the Serer people believe that both Takhar and his adversary Tiurakh (god of wealth and property) reside in the tallest trees of the forest. It is partly for this reason why plants and animals are regarded as totems in the Serer-totemic and sentient worldly-view of nature in general”
