That's actually a really good explanation for why so many humans look down on the Faunus so much, besides the whole 'different and therefore bad' thing. To a human, a Faunus lives in the wild, likely hunts their food, and has to rely on years of honed fighting instinct to surivive.

In Imperialist vernacular, that would qualify your average Faunus as a "savage".

It likely goes both ways, too. A Faunus that isn't as open-minded or urbane as those introduced thus far (Blake, Sun, Velvet) probably views the average human as a cowardly elitist gobshite, since for them, surivival--hell, comfort--is taken for granted.
