I do remember reading somewhere that with animals just as much as humans eye contact can be seen as confrontational which is why it is a) advisable not to 'stare' at some cats/dogs/monkeys, and b) why if you try to have eye contact during a conversation the other person or yourself will look away. Primal instincts cannot be easily broken even when that instinct has been made obsolete by the evolutionary changes that have occured in society as a whole.
Interesting stuff (even if I am only remembering less than half the information to fill in the whole picture).
