If there's one thing Wukong hates more than being commanded, it's being snubbed by gods who think they're better than him, more "responsible" than him, and deserving of more praise and admiration. You want to do nonlethal herding, dog? You better bet your tail Sun Wukong knows how to herd giant lizards!

Of course, he underestimated their size.
