Let me clean this up: 1. If animals are killed and eaten in the wild, then it is okay to eat animals. This is a valid argument. Premise #1 is a claim without support, and would certainly be argued. |

I believe this could be an appeal to nature fallacy. |

This argument seems to be defining an "ought" (It is okay to kill and eat animals) from an "is" (Animals are killed and eaten in the wild). This clearly fits the definition of the naturalistic fallacy. |
