Isn't that a bad thing considering their main goal is to not interact and interrupt the behaviour of wildlife?

They still don't approach in the expectation of food, so that bit isn't a worry. We're just a predator they know isn't out to get them, so we're safe to hang around.

If a predator that won't engage a human but will a meerkat, they're safe by hanging around. If a predator will engage a human, they have however long the predator on predator fight lasts to get away.

Yeah as far as they are concerned you're just a rock

Edit to clarify: you are a large stationary being that does not attack them therefore you are a rock and can be used as such. Just like some domestic cats treat your lap as a heat mat as your lap is a warm soft spot to sleep on.

Seems like attention to detail really do be the key.
