If a llama spits on me and its spit contains DNA has it given me permission to use that spit, and therefore that DNA?
That's an interesting question. There are ways to gather DNA from animals without violating their rights–if a llama spits on you, it decided to give you that spit. If a dog bites you, same deal.
But then, exploiting that DNA for profit. Is that vegan? My inner pirate says it's fine, copying isn't theft
