Which belief systems have the highest percentages of vegans, relative to their own populations?

Buddhism and other neighboring systems tend to arrive at veganism being virtuous

That's also my hunch - that Buddhism in particular has a high percentage of vegans. I still would like to see the data though.

Just to add to the mix: Third Day Adventists encourage going vegan, and quite a few of them are vegetarian. It’s not a huge religion, but I know that they’ve even been studied for their longevity.

I Adventist health studies are amazing.
