Strictly speaking, no. However, many Buddhists, especially Mahayana Buddhists, give up eating meat as a manifestation of their compassion.
The Fifth Precept forbids the consumption of alcohol. In this spirit, most practicing Buddhists abstain from drugs as well.
Some Mahayana Buddhists also abstain from strong foods such as onions, leeks and garlic, believing that they may inflame the spirit.
Some Buddhists, even if they are not vegetarian, avoid meat from carnivores (including Birds of Prey), believing that they may transfer their blood lust to the eater, although this is not found in the Tripitika.
