No. Pescatarians eat seafood, along with an otherwise vegetarian diet. Gelatin is typically manufactured from cloven animals (e.g. hooves). That being said, if a pescatarian chooses to eat gelatin or gelatin containing products, that would be his/her choice.

Pescatarians only eat fish. There is gelatin made from fish, but it is not commonly available.

Vegetarians do not eat it, because gelatin is made up of animal bones, which makes it an animal product. Gelatin is also made up of various other animal products such as beef skin, cow hooves and sometimes the scrapings from the inside of the animal.

Gelatin is a protein produced by partial hydrolysis of collagen extracted from the bones, connective tissues, organs and some intestines of animals such as domesticated cattle.

So I would not recommend it.

Well it's normally their choice. Eggs are the embryos of chickens, and many vegetarians are not okay with their consumption. Gelatin is made from various animal products, such as pig skin, cow hoof, or horn, and so would not be eaten by most vegetarians. Rennet is an enzyme extracted from an animal's stomach and used to make cheese, and so is not okay for vegetarians as well.
