# They don't recognise each other as human

It isn't uncommon for humans to disregard the humanity of races that don't look similar to them. With no shared languages and distinct physicality it is entirely possible that both races regard the other as more akin to apes or cattle.

This is less of a "war" and more "pest-control". Each race views the other as somehow lesser and it has never occurred to them to try peace. With so little regard for the other race, cross-breeding and cultural diffusion is unlikely.
