I have had an interesting experience today that could add to this conversation. As a nature photographer, I was in my garden taking photos of Ladybugs.
And it was harassed by quite a few ants. Then a spider showed up covering the body of the Ladybug and the ants just walked away.
The Ladybug remained unharmed, after a while the spider walked away and the Ladybug did too.

Why are snub nosed monkeys endangered?
Snub Nosed-Monkeys are valued for their meat especially in countries like Malaysia, China, Vietnam, The Philippines, Maritius, and Indonesia. To capture them and sell them as pets on the black market, they are caught very brutally in most countries with group snare traps, and undesirable animals that are caught are beaten to death and sold for meat. Particularly the Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey is killed and sold for it fiery orange-red fur. The second most common reason for their endangerment is illegal and legal logging, which is also a problem for many other endangered species of both animals and plants. The least of the problems for its endangerment is natural change which they can adapt to easily within a couple of weeks, except the youngest ones have more trouble than mature ones, and they can die easily.
