Nature is not indifferent to survival, it operates via survival. Or rather, via non-survival.

It's a vital part of evolution. If all of those termites survived, it would be disastrous.

I'd say that nature is indifferent to suffering (of those creatures that are capable of suffering), but not to survival.
