Personally, I would phrase this as
Sor 'emDaq targhtaH, qar'a'?
(The targh continues to be in the tree's area-behind, right?)
and
bIQtIqDaq targhtaH, qar'a'?
(The targh continues to be at the river, right?)
I suggest you read over TKD 6.3 (p68). It gives the example of pa'wIjDaq
jIHtaH for I am in my quarters. In a "to be" construction, no verb is
necessary. Also, 'em is a noun, not a verb, when you mean it to mean
"behind". Unless you wrote SorDaq 'em'a' targh, which is "Does the targh
vomit on/near the tree?"
