The Vegan Society of New South Wales defines Veganism the following way:

Veganism is a way of living on the products of the plant kingdom to the exclusion of all products from the animal kingdom. A vegan is a total vegetarian who consumes no animal by-products.

Vegans go even further by avoiding both animal derivatives and animal-tested products in their whole lifestyle. This means an avoidance of meat, milk, eggs, butter, etc., as well as leather, wool, cosmetics, soaps and shampoos derived from animal ingredients or tested on animals.

...c'mon dusty, you know you wanna try it.
