    gorillas are not vegan. they eat their butt cookies (an animal product), and they eat bugs. but besides that, veganism is an ethical stance, and there is no proof they have ever considered the ethics of animal exploitation.

      Are you saying that eating “butt cookies” is exploiting animals? I mean, that is what you’re saying, I’m just not sure why.

        they’re eating an animal product. so, by the most basic definition of “exploit” which is as a synonym of “use”, yes.
