A vegan doesn't use animal products no matter the circumstances.
What you're referring to is either a semi-vegetarian or a lacto/ovo-vegetarian. The label changes depending on what the person eats.
But I don't know anyone who eats animals who die of natual causes. Would even farmers find that unsanitary?

I would call that person attempting to be an ethical consumer.

They are part time vegetarians! :O) I know that many people have this nice idea that an animal used for consumption could die of 'natural' causes, but it's usually the furthest from the truth. I was watching a show where a strict vegan woman had a real leopard skin rug. She justified it by saying that she never would have bought it except that she was reassured it died of natural causes...hemmm...family all gathered around the bed? I don't think so!

People who consume animals that died of natural causes or accidental deaths are scavengers and are in no way or form a vegerarian.

Vegeterians do not eat meat but consume dairy products.

Vegans do not consume any animal products.

it isn't only meat that resources maximum cancers, eggs, cheese and milk can do exactly besides with maximum cancers. A Planet depending entire meals weight help plan is perfect for battling maximum cancers, for the time of maximum cancers, and after maximum cancers. in any case, i do not comprehend the semi=vegetarian component, because in truth your saying your an omnivore that eats vegetables and end result. Is that so uncommon for an omni to attempt this, that they ought to make a popularity for it? You devour meat, or you do not. people can call themselves what you go with, I do exactly not get it each and every from time to time. i do not say some thing because i don't like fights and that i hate the sensation of getting to tutor a level, yet when people go with to call themselves what ever, then they could be able to.

I know vegans that call themselves freegans because they will sometimes eat diary because it is nearly impossible to go out to eat (restaurant or someone else's house) and avoid some dairy without affecting the health or creating some offense. I accept this definition and if you wanted to be cute you could call vegetarians that will eat meat in special circumstances freegetarians.

Supposedly the Buddha ate meat only when offer to him by another but otherwise ate vegetarian. It is all too easy to become legalistic about the vegetarian lifestyle. Life is not always that simple. The spiritual goal is to reduce suffering the best way we can without resorting to rigid pharisaical behavior.

How would you eat an animal dead by accidental death? Like roadkill? Any egg wouldn't be considered offspring unless it had been fertilized and then it would have an actual embryo inside. So I guess I'd call the person confused.

The person is not vegan at all. Vegans dont consume any animals for any reason not do they consume eggs or dairy.

You can't be a semi-vegetarian. Your are a vegetarian, or you are not. If you eat meat, whether or not died naturally, it is still meat. Then you are not a vegetarian. A vegan will not eat any animal products at all.
