Best Aussie & Kiwi Vegans to Follow on Instagram

Do you upload snaps of your kitty to #CatsOfIG? Would you double tap for #FriendsNotFood?

Here are some animal-loving Aussie Instagram accounts you should not scroll past.

DJ Tigerlily

Tigerlily’s passionate campaigning and compassion for animals are why PETA named her Australia‘s “Most Beautiful Vegan“ in 2018. She uses her page to encourage others to try the vegan lifestyle and to speak up for the billions of animals who are killed every year for their flesh.

Morgan Mitchell

Morgan Mitchell is living proof that plant-based eating can power you to the highest peak of fitness.

Vegan Bowls

While this account is about a coconut serving bowl, you can’t help but be delighted by the bowl’s filling! This page is full of delicious, colourful and kind recipes with guest appearances from vegan social media influencers.

Mantras and Mangos

A trained nurse and health coach with a knack for beautiful photography, Mary Christine of Mantras and Mangos is your go-to source for health inspiration and gorgeous beach snaps.

James Aspey

He’s the guy who used a year of silence to make everyone listen to the horrible truth about animal suffering. Now, Aspey is using social media to speak to thousands of followers daily.

Nikki van Dijk

Every vegan has a “why I went vegan” story. But pro surfer Nikki van Dijk’s story is unlike anyone else’s. In 2014, she hit a reef while surfing Cloudbreak in Fiji, resulting in 16 stiches and surgery. She had only a few weeks to recover before her next contest, so she temporarily went vegan to kickstart her healing. She told The Weekly Review, “After that I thought, ‘Hang on, I do not need anything in my body that doesn’t need to be there.’” With encouragement from her sister—who was already vegan—she went all in, and she says that she’s never looked back and never felt better.

Crissi Carvalho

A full-time fitness model and bodybuilder, online coach Crissi Carvalho is using her gains in the gym to advance animal rights. She’s a proud rescued dog foster mumma and has arguably the best abs on Instagram.

Raw Kiwi 

A master photographer and a maker of beautiful raw creations, Nicole “Raw Kiwi” English is sure to have you drooling on your phone screen faster than you can say, “Pass me some of that vegan cheesecake”.

Tess Begg 

If there’s one demographic of vegan Instagrammers that really dominates, it’s Sydney girls. Eighteen-year-old Tess is yet another one who’s all over IG at the moment – and for good reason!

Stephanie Lange

This Sydney-based make-up artist and YouTuber promotes cruelty-free beauty products and eats a plant-based diet, too. Stephanie aims to show that you can enjoy experimenting with make-up without harming animals!

You may be noticing a theme on Instagram: FOOD! Annie’s account is no different, and her photos are a constant drool-fest.
