Per the title. If an animal dies out in nature without any human involvement, shouldn’t it be considered vegan to harvest any of the useful parts from it (not nessicarily meat, think hide), since there was no human-caused suffering involved?

Similarly, is driving a car not vegan because of the roadkill issue?

Especially curious to hear a perspective from any practicing moral vegans.

Also: I am not vegan. That’s why I’m asking. I’m not planning on eating roadkill thank you. Just suggesting the existence of animal-based vegan leather.

    It doesn’t matter what the creator of the word thought

    Yeah…

    That’s why I said:

    You can just keep using his word, but not care about his rules.

    Thanks for aggressively agreeing with me I guess?

    Weird move, and I think it’s more likely you were just confused, it works better if you ask questions when you’re confused.
