I think it's odd that they're not. They're generally portrayed as liking nature, and nature has no problems with animals killing and eating each other. I'm a vegetarian because I care about the individual animals, and I'm not a fan of nature and I would never become a druid unless it's part of overthrowing the natural order.

Nature is brutal. It's UNNATURAL to limit oneself to eating things with less nutrients. Being one with nature means you kill or be killed, and only the fittest survive.

Now the difference of philosophy here is that the structure humans have created is much more unnatural than that. A druid would agree that going out into the woods with a bow and shooting a deer is fine. But going to a restaurant and ordering chicken that was raised in a barn, for the sole purpose of consumption, is wildly unnatural.
