Interestingly enough, it’s not just us humans that start measured and turn it up

My dad back in the day had sent me a vid of a dog confronting a large snake to protect the people around. At first the dog was just barking, and his barks had a certain aggressive confident tone

But then the snake struck, a good bite I forget exactly where on the dog. And right then the dogs barks changed to a bit of a shrill shriek. And you could tell it’s dog brain had just realized “oh shit this thing can really hurt me”

…And it went into savage mode. Grabbed the snake by the head and shook so hard it was dead in seconds

It’s like there’s various levels of intensity to fights. We don’t all start at the same or end at the same level
