It just seems so much easier to write for villainous predators. A herbivorous animal would disrespect the circle of life by overconsuming food and water without leaving any for others, much like carnivores would overhunt or kill for reasons besides hunger.

If they introduce a villainous herbivore in the future (and I hope they do), it would probably be a Cape buffalo, which is known to have a rather aggressive reputation and is even nicknamed "black death". They've even been known to kill lions. Maybe to really shake things up, this new villain could have a predator prejudice.
