Animal rights influencer Elena Larrea, 31, died two days after liposuction.
The Mexican model influencer and activist died of pulmonary thrombosis, also called pulmonary embolism, in which blood clots travel from the legs to the lungs while confirmed by her team on Instagram.
Larrea was the founder of the Cuacolandia animal shelter, which provided shelter for horses, donkeys and other animals.
When the shelter was about to close, Larrea joined OnlyFans to raise money to keep it open.
She worked with the Animalist Movement of Puebla to make bestiality a crime in the state, ultimately changing the legislature in the Mexican state of Puebla.
Puebla regional governor Sergio Soloman spoke out after the announcement of her death, calling Larrea a “tireless fighter” for animal rights.

Soloman promised to keep her animal shelter open with the help of the Ministry of the Environment.
“We will provide all necessary assistance so that authorities can care for other horses as well as those already rescued, with their welfare paramount at all times. We will follow your example. Rest in peace, Elena,” Solomon said.
