I think part of that is that they try to hard to help their human readers/viewers relate to the characters. An animal wouldn't have the same motivation as a human for doing a given thing I don't think. For example a wolf would probably attack a threat first due to wanting to protect the pack and its own personal reason for attacking would be secondary.
