It's funny that Netflix rates this movie as 7+ (my country). I don't have any issues with the movie itself; it boasts excellent animations, well-developed characters, and an engaging plot, among other strengths. However, the movie seems to convey the message that dangerous animals are harmless if you befriend them, which is not a realistic scenario. While it's highly unlikely for a child to encounter a cobra on a playground, my concern is that the movie might give the impression that all animals can be safely approached by children. Perhaps I'm overthinking it.
