Lard is animal fat tissue, not a secretion, but an actual animal derived product.
There are different reasons why people become vegetarian or vegan: religious, moral, health, taste, cost. The particular reason will govern how strict someone is, but by and large lard is out.
Leather is also a direct product of killing an animal and plenty of vegetarians will defend using it.
Yep, Vegetarians and vegans are not a single org with unified reasons or bounds. Some people merely eat a vegetarian diet, some people try to abstain from all animal products including honey, beeswax, leather, dyes, glues, shells, some medicicinal binders, etc.
It is impossible to avoid ALL animal byproducts or exploitation in the modern age, however. One must draw the line somewhere: do you salvage a corpse you encounter on a hike, do you use chalk or concrete, do you have a phone with a camera, do you eat coconuts, do you support certain types of criminal forensics, do you wear tattoos, etc?
Yes, and veganism is the only one I consider worth a damn.
