Actually, gelatin is usually made from healthy cattle. They use bone, skin, and sometimes fresh pig skin. Jello is definitely not vegetarian friendly even though the FDA doesn't consider it to be an animal product. If you do some research on gelatin you will see that this is pretty accurate.

ALMOST
The gelatin you eat in Jell-O comes from the collagen in cow or pig bones, hooves, and connective tissues. To make gelatin, manufacturers grind up these various parts and pre-treat them with either a strong acid or a strong base to break down cellular structures and release proteins like collagen. After pre-treatment, the resulting mixture is boiled. During this process, the large collagen protein ends up being partially broken down, and the resulting product is called gelatin. The gelatin is easily extracted because it forms a layer on the surface of the boiling mixture.
