Were the Na'vi ordered to kill Avatars?
In Avatar, I don't understand why Neytiri was going to kill Jake.
Considering this,
- Avatars regularly went on day time field trips
- They carried weapons b/c the wildlife was the main threat
- There was no mention of an Avatar being killed by Na'vi
- Finally: When Norm asks Grace about the Na'vi when they first go into the woods of Pandora, Graces says,
I am sure they are watching us now.
So, we are told that the Na'vi are most likely always watching them, which to me says that they are not in any danger from the Na'vi.
BUT, after Jake escapes the Banator attack, we see Neytiri about to shoot Jake with an arrow. Considering this,
- It was still daylight (We are led to believe that night ops are not sanctioned and we do not know for what reason. It could be that the Na'vi are trained to kill at night? Speculation on my behalf)
- Jake had yet to upset the wildlife which Neytiri was angry at
So, what was the reason for Neytiri to kill Jake? Were the Na'vi supposed to kill the Avatars on sight? Or was this a spontaneous decision by Neytiri?
Best Answer
Neytiri wanted to kill Jake because the previous Avatar expedition (with the famous female doctor) didn't go well and they all were excluded from the tree. The sponsors wanted the tree location because of the mines beneath it; something the Na'vi could never give up. There was a deep mistrust among them towards the avatars.

Is Jake permanently an Avatar?
Transferred Avatars The Omaticaya Clan attempted to save Dr. Grace Augustine in 2154, but she did not survive due to previously sustained life-threatening wounds. Jake Sully went through the process the three days later, and became the second to have his consciousness moved permanently into his avatar body.How are the avatars controlled?
Each avatar is genetically keyed to its respective human controller. Using psionic link technology, the human controller can remotely control the avatar body out in the wilds of Pandora, receiving all sensory input and providing all motor control to the body.Why did they want to destroy the tree in Avatar?
It was an attempt by the Resources Development Administration to forcefully evict the Omaticaya clan from their ancestrial Hometree in order to gain access to the large unobtanium mine directly below the settlement.Akon - Right Now (Na Na Na) (Official Video)
