I thought the same thing. My assumption is that the two were caught in that position completely by chance, and people interpreted it as an attack. I would assume that if they were being engulfed by tree sap, which is quite slow, the bugs would attempt to escape from that ... instead of dealing with each other. My YouTube Channel
