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.

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.
Hoofs and tendons used to be boiled down for glue. -Now most modern glues do not use any animal parts.
Glue is obtained from collagen, a protein found in various parts of the pig's body, including the skin, bones, and connective tissues. These parts are processed and boiled down to extract the collagen, which is then used to make glue.
Animal hooves and sinew were used a lot. Now they are used in very limited amounts for specialist wood glue for restoration.
Horse hooves used to be used, but not any more. -There are no animal parts in modern glues.

In the old days hooves and tendons were used to make glues. Now most glues are made from chemical products.
There are no animals made of glue. -There are also very few glues made of animals. In general only a few specialised woodworking glues are made from animal parts and are mainly used in antique restoration.

Super glue
One common glue that is not made from animals is PVA glue, which is a synthetic adhesive made from polyvinyl acetate. This type of glue is widely used for various applications such as crafts, woodworking, and general household repairs.
There are several commercial uses for different body parts of animals. The meat of many animals is sold as food as are the internal organs. The intestines of many animals are used as natural casings for sausages. The skin is used to make leather or fur. Bones are used to make tools or decorative items. Bones are also used to make the gelatine used in cooking.

Used to be the hooves and connective tissue, but not any more. Only highly specialised glues a re made from animal parts these days. Most common glues are made from chemicals.
Different types of PVA are used to join timber.
