A vegan travel blogger who videoed herself in tears after seeing a crate of sheep being trafficked on a ferry says she has received daily rape and death threats since the footage was posted online.
Kristin Lajeunesse, who is from the US, was on a ferry from Picton to Wellington last week when she smelt "animal faeces" at the rear of the boat and decided to investigate.
She became emotional after seeing dozens of sheep packed into a crate, describing the scene as "cruelty set against beauty" in a tearful video which was viewed hundreds of thousands of times.
In a new video, Lajeunesse said she was upset and disturbed that tens of thousands of people had threatened her over the past week.
