Chimp social interaction at end?

At end of this clip; Petra stands, Siena stretches her arm toward her and grunts, Petra pulls back, yips, sits. Interesting. Is she enforcing the distance between Petra and the infant or something else?

In the next video ACP000dtmh, she gets up again and showing her back to Siena / infant. I think this can also be a submissive gesture. That would fit her grunts greeting Siena when she arrives at the tree in ACP000dtc2 / ACP000dtc3. But I don't know why she is doing that in the middle of the feeding. Asking for reassurance?
Moved to GS-16. (Sorry, I did not see this and it's really old now.)
