      As far as I know, the vegan prerogative is to avoid harming any living creature, and avoiding eating animals comes downstream of that. I think other vegans believe eating any animal for any reason is immoral, but I’m not really sure of their rationale.

      So on the one hand, you might be able to convince a vegan to eat roadkill…

        There’s some debate over whether bivalves are vegan, because they don’t have a central nervous system and therefore can’t experience suffering.
