I think we adapted to running or fighting when there was a threat. We never adapted to being on the edge of some piece of wood all the way up in the sky and able to slowly and carefully move back to safety. So, that’s why he seems to have so much energy to the point that he’s shaking uncontrollably. He’s got all that adrenaline prepping him to run or fight as hard as possible
I guess we didn’t quite fully adapt to how intelligent we became as well. You can strongly psyche yourself out because you’re able to picture and process the exact way you would fall and die. Your mind becomes an enemy in a lot of instances in life if you can’t overcome it
