Female hunter found dead in apparent suicide after 'online threats'
Well-known blogger and hunter Melania Capitan has been found dead in an apparent suicide weeks after she was reportedly threatened online.
The 27-year-old had thousands of online followers with her posts centred around hunting tactics and her many adventures.
She was from Catalonia, Spain, and had lived in Huesca for the past three years.
Just weeks ago the hunter was reportedly threatened on social media by animal rights activists, The Daily Mail reports.
After her death, Capitan's Facebook had several messages praising the news that she was dead.
"You have done a favour to humanity! Bye bye," one comment read.
"Ciao Mel, you made a favour to nature," another person wrote.
"She was so bitter that she had to pay her hate killing innocent animals, thank God she killed herself, the only good thing she did lately," another comment reads.
Capitan had reportedly left a suicide note for her friends.
