Animal hooves and sinew were used a lot. Now they are used in very limited amounts for specialist wood glue for restoration.
Just parts of animals have been used to make glue. Animal collagen has been used for thousands of years to make glue. Hides from mammals, fish have been commonly used. Horses (often said to be "sent to the glue factory), cattle and pigs have been used. These days, most glues are synthetic.
The main plants used to make glue are:Plant-based glues:Canada balsam (natural resin)pine rosin based (natural resin)CoccoinaGum Arabic (natural resin)
Animal glue is made from the collagen from various animal parts, including skin, bones, tendons, and other tissues. Horse parts are typically used, but rabbits and fish are sometimes used as well.
About 200-300 years ago many animals with hooves and tendons were used to render down to make glue. Fish bones were also used until quite recently. I remember being taught to use it in school woodwork class. -Now a small amount of animal glue is still made by specialist companies, mainly for antique restoration.

In the old days hooves and tendons were used to make glues. Now most glues are made from chemical products.

- Very few of the glues we use today are made from animal products. Some is made for antique restorers, but nothing the average person could find in a store

Animal glue.
huh i used to work at a glue factory and we did use horse semen to make glue granted we put it through several different machines that essentially rendered it as glue though we did have 8 stallions hooked up to "milking" machines and we produced glue so i exstrapolated that the glue was made from the well stuff
