Notorious vegan protestor Tash Peterson had an awkward confrontation with a horse and cart driver during which he threatened to beat her to death with her camera. Watch below:

After moving from her native Western Australia to Melbourne earlier this month, the 28-year-old has wasted no time in continuing her activism.

She filmed the horse and cart driver and he didn't take too kindly to the incident.

"I hope you are not filming my child?" he said to Tash. "If you do I'll beat you to death with your camera."

Despite the chilling threat, Tash kept filming and said she wanted to document 'animal slavery and exploitation'.

She yelled out at the cart driver: "How can you defend this? Can you not see how sad and depressed they are? These animals should be free.

The man threatened to beat Tash to death with her camera.

"Animal abusers, total losers! You should be ashamed of yourself!"

She added on Facebook: "Regardless of how well 'loved' and 'cared' for a nonhuman animal is, using them as a vehicle and commodity is immoral.

"They are not slaves or machines and do not consent to being exploited as a vehicle for a humans pleasure. Stop supporting animal slavery by living vegan."

Horse-drawn carriages have been banned from Melbourne's CBD after a huge public campaign.

The tourist attractions have been a part of the capital city's streets for decades, however there has been a growing chorus of people who want it removed.

There were a few horrific instances of horses collapsing and carriage drivers seen allegedly abusing the animals to get back up and continue walking.

As a result, Daniel Andrews' government has switched up the road rules to ensure these attractions won't be able to operate, according to the Herald Sun.

Tash Peterson has promised to bring her public activism in full force now that she's settled in Melbourne.

She's targeted supermarkets, fast food outlets, football matches, high-end fashion chains in the past and there's no doubt she'll be doing the same in Victoria.

"I'll definitely hit up a steakhouse and some supermarkets," she told the Herald Sun

"I'll take my activism to the next level as time goes by and I'm willing to break the law if it's going to bring more attention to my message, so there might be a bit of law-breaking in future."
