Gelatin is an animal product. It is a protein which comes from the bones and skin of the animal; in the case of ungulates such as cattle and sheep, the hooves can also be used to extract gelatin. Gelatin is usually extracted by boiling. Most commercial gelatin in the US is a byproduct of pork processing and does indeed come from pork.
