No assumptions for alien life is the rule-- this could be its natural state. Maybe. It's a sorry sight, though. Niou gets the impression it's not fully aware of its surroundings yet.
Staying still has its merits, but it's going to notice them sooner or later, and it's an open question how it will react. Niou shifts his hand to his utility belt and releases a small drone from it, activating it with his thumb. It rises in the sky with barely a sound.
He notes a couple of trees nearby that look scalable and tests a few slow steps back. It gets the animal's attention, but its body language communicates confusion and alertness more than danger. No fundamental change in its posture.
If they can remove themselves without engaging it, that's the best option. Calm, subtle movements to redirect course and cede the area to the being that actually belongs there.
