"Even in hiding, if you know how to tail it's not the porcupine you go after"
The female officer and onlooker point to the tail end of a porcupine.
Among the Akan the porcupine is viewed as an ideal warrior, often seen on chiefs' staffs and rings.
The four gongs instruments signify a call for observation.
