Humans (and animals) equate shapes with important things. We see faces in things that aren't. Some animals are afraid of certain shapes. In Art (had to take humanities) certain shapes like a triangle pointing down are dangerous/scary while pointing up are safe. This is just another one of those. I personally don't see faces in it because I know there aren't faces there so my brain doesn't look for them.

I forget if its worms or something but if they see shapes like l they freak out and hide, but when they see shapes like _ they think its prey regardless if it moves etc. I can't remember what it was though...
