That was intentional. Females are allowed to hunt, but have a much lower meat gathering rate than males and cavalry. Also, Celtic females are supposed to have a small attack to defend themselves against attackers. Females from other factions are supposed to run away. These are complex interactions and features to implement, because it involves faction-specific unit AI for the different females. Also, it seems that females from other factions will need an attack value as well, but may only use it on animals and not against enemy units.

As a quick fix for Alpha II I made all females have a small attack (so they actually go hunt when you task them to). The problem before was that animal health was finally enabled and you now need to kill the animals first to gather from them. Since females didn't have an attack they wouldn't be able to kill the animal, so the game was confused. We'll need to tweak female behavior so that females don't auto-attack nearby enemies since they have an attack now.
In the latest development builds, celt(?) women have a very small amount of attacking power. They can kill sheep for example, before harvesting food from them.
