    Not quite. Vegans don’t eat any animal products of any kind. Vegetarians don’t eat products that necessitate killing an animal to produce, but allow others. Note that these other products are usually from animals that will be killed for food, and that the animals that won’t be murdered still also suffer.

      Vegetarians don’t eat meat. Hence vegans are vegetarian.

      Ovo-lacto-vegetarians allow eggs and milk. This is the common type of vegetarian in the West.

      Lacto-vegetarians allow milk, but not eggs. This is the common type of vegetarian in India.
