Tash Peterson, Australia’s infamous vegan activist known for her headline-grabbing protests, has been ordered to pay a whopping $180,000 (AUD 280,000) in damages to a Perth-based veterinarian she accused of “eating [her] own patients.”
The judgement was handed down to Tash on Monday, November 25, after a judge ruled that she and her partner Jack Higgs used “provocative and inflammatory” language towards Dr. Kay McIntosh and her husband Andrew.
Tash is known for her “disruptive” internet campaigns, and her main source of income comes from sharing content on an adult streaming platform where she made almost $250,000 in 2021-22, according to the court.
