Pressing the Sprint button while tree running causes you to crouch

Pressing the Sprint button while running in the trees causes you to crouch.

This becomes a problem when you are trying to run quickly in the trees, and instinctively press the sprint button to run faster, but instead it causes the predator to crouch, thus reducing his movement speed, which is the opposite of what you intend when you want to sprint.
