does anyone else wonder about the facts of the "Grimm war" presented so far? It always seems to mention "Grimm" and "humans" or "mankind" but never "Faunus", though it does state Grimm will not attack "animals" unless threatened or territorily encroached on. So were the Faunus even involved? do they even get attacked by Grimm normally?

I watched the episodes where they interact and each time Faunus seemed the "aggressor"(like Blake sneaking up on the Ursa in the forest, or the WF blowing up their tunnel), unconcerned(like Blake/Adam in "Black", the "2" presumably weak WF guards told to secure the perimeter in the area crawling with Grimm that somewhat tired out RWBY) or human affiliating(Blake & Oobleck during the whole "field trip" were standing near the humans on their team but the Grimm seemed to attack Oobleck only when he was in their "threat range" during combat or standing near a human while Blake actively engaged them in combat).

does anyone else wonder about this or did they see anything that would indicate Grimm attacking Faunus? The other reason I am interested is that this would explain why Faunus are treated as "slave labor" and get resource gathering jobs like dust mining, because they could then do those tasks with relatively little fear of Grimm attacks while outside the walls(the reasoning for such mines likely being outside the city walls being explained on the field trip).
