1. What percentage of veterinarians are vegetarian or vegan?
The exact percentage is difficult to pinpoint, as it varies by region and specialty. However, studies suggest that the rate is not significantly higher than the general population, and might even be lower. The shift away from vegetarianism as students progress through their veterinary programs seems to suggest that the longer a person is exposed to the realities of animal agriculture and medicine, the less likely they are to be vegan.
