Does two weapon fighting apply to a druid making multiple natural attacks?
You can fight with a weapon wielded in each of your hands. You can make one extra attack each round with the secondary weapon.
Prerequisite: Dex 15.
Benefit: Your penalties on attack rolls for fighting with two weapons are reduced. The penalty for your primary hand lessens by 2 and the one for your off hand lessens by 6. See Two-Weapon Fighting.
Normal: If you wield a second weapon in your off hand, you can get one extra attack per round with that weapon. When fighting in this way you suffer a –6 penalty with your regular attack or attacks with your primary hand and a –10 penalty to the attack with your off hand. If your off-hand weapon is light, the penalties are reduced by 2 each. An unarmed strike is always considered light.

No, a Druid making natural attacks proceeds under the standard natural attack rules, no extra iterative attacks, but multiple natural attacks possible.
Bite and claws, for instance, are always primary natural attacks, and have no penalty; while slams, IIRC, are always secondary natural attacks and take the -5 penalty to hit if used with any primary natural attack.
Note that natural attacks used with a weapon attack suffer the -5 penalty, not the TWF penalty, and usually get the 1/2 Str mod to damage.
Well don't elephants and elementals use slams as primary natural?

Natural Attacks have a few built in exceptions. You can read up on them in the link. If a creatures only attack is typically a secondary natural attack, it becomes a primary natural attack.
thanks!
