I actually can't even watch the animal discovery shows because I can't stand to see them killed for food. It's better not to make horrible, and generalized assumptions about entire groups of people.
As to answering your question, no, I don't think killing for food is evil. I also don't think it's "good". I think it's the result of the natural world we live in and necessary for ecosystem balance. This is Earth, not Heaven. It isn't meant to be the ideal place.
Killing implies harm and suffering. A world in which killing, for whatever reason, is a necessity is a world that is much more likely under naturalism than under supernatural theism (especially one that posits a loving and caring deity).
