I get a kick out of the idea that the apes were trying to warm off the humans because the traps are dangerous. Proof that they're able to tell the difference between human poachers and humans they either know are good or that they've never seen before and are effectively "innocent" potential victims.

Or they don't know that the traps are made by humans.

Indeed, humans are treacherous and sneaky bastards.

Well, according to sources like The Jungle Book and The Lion King, humans aren't the only ones... 🤪
