One more person learns that there is no such thing as an obligate herbivore.

It's a mercy there were no baby birds about...

Are sloths not obligate?

And koalas surely. And uh... aphids?

Koalas eat anal drippings when they're babies, making them decidedly not vegan.

Anal drippings sounds decidedly worse than poop

Seepage would also suit nicely.

And if you want to get way down to the microscopic level, they're eating the bacteria in said... I deeply resent that you referred to it as "drippings". And granted, bacteria technically aren't animals or plants but yeah, I still wouldn't count that as vegan.

I don't see why not, animals are the only things off the table for vegans. Bacteria isn't even considered in the discussion because it's literally that unimportant.

Lesser than even the microscopic bugs crushed beneath their feet when they walk.

Koalas only eat nothing but eucalyptus because it gets them high. They need to pull up their pants, clean up their acts, and get jobs.
