Monkey versus human

Today I saw  group of monkeys and I had a red packet in my hand. I remembered someone telling me that monkeys generally snatch things that are bright in color and I thought what if he tries to do that. I can't even argue with him because it's an "animal". But then I realized what if he were a human being coz we sure can argue in our own species with common language. What if he wanted to snatch it. Could I have argued with him; Saying no it's of no use to you? Or no, it's important to me please don't take it?
But then I suddenly realised how scary ot would have been in that case. Much more scarier. Monkey versus human!
And then I said to myself "jaanwar se darr nahi lagta sahab insaan se lagta hai"
