Ya I don't think we as humans should expect kindness from God(or whatever higher being there exists).
Cause if there is a being like that who truly exists, he wouldn't see us as we see each other or how we even see animals.
From his vantage point we would be no different from insects. Like pest, he could get rid of us in the millions without thinking twice or having any moral apprehension.
I mean how often do you feel guilty after crushing a mosquito? Or calling pest control to kill termites?
So it's not that he is our father in the human sense, of a father or son relationship because a father and son are more less equals or atleast grow to be so in intellect, strength etc.
But this being could never have such a relationship with us.
So we are more like a bunch of ants in his box, which he can observe whenever he wants if he finds it fun or interesting in what funny, stupid ways we act and behave OR he can eradicate us with a magnifying glass if he so chooses.
I don't see any sort of maliciousness in the leopard here. To me the leopard seems to be representing the mother, strong and fierce in protecting her child while also licking him with care and love like how my mother used to give me a goodnight kiss as a child
