Mikayla Raines, founder of the popular animal rescue organization Save A Fox and a well-known YouTuber, has died by suicide, her husband Ethan Raines confirmed in a heartbreaking video uploaded to the Save A Fox YouTube channel on June 23, 2025.

Mikayla, who was known for her tireless work rescuing and caring for foxes and other exotic animals, had been battling severe mental health conditions including depression, autism, and borderline personality disorder. According to Ethan, despite years of therapy and various medications, she continued to struggle with daily life and emotional regulation.
In his emotional 11-minute statement, Ethan revealed that Mikayla had been the target of a prolonged online harassment campaign. The abuse reportedly came not only from strangers but also from individuals within her personal life and others in the animal rescue community.

“They spread false rumors, and being the sensitive person she was, it deeply affected her,” Ethan said. “She tried for years to push through the pain, but this time it was too much.”

Mikayla is survived by Ethan, their daughter Freya, and the many animals she cared for at Save A Fox’s Minnesota and Florida locations. Ethan has vowed to continue her legacy and the mission of the rescue.

Fans and fellow animal lovers expressed shock and sorrow online, paying tribute to Mikayla’s impact on the rescue community.

Before anyone here white knights/simps too hard for the dead bitch I advise you to go over this mountain of evidence:

If anything this seems to confirm that her business was getting foxes out of fur farms by buying them, which is what it was presented as. It also seems to confirm that her friends were part of the harassment against her, as most of these are clearly texts from her friends, who obviously leaked them. Women are so terrible to each other.

Yeah Women are terrible at making friends
because they immediately backstab any "friend" who achieved more than them in atleast 1 field.


i.e.

Sasha: "Meet my friend, Yolanda, she has down syndrome and is paraplegic. that poor thing"
Michaela: "Oh, Yolanda? I know her. its amazing right, she has down syndrome and is paraplegic but I hear she's also a michelin star chef"
Sasha: ".... Right?! And Oh did you know Yolanda cheats on her husband and is such a whore? She often badmouths her husband alllllllll the time"

Yeah all I’m going to say is everyone through this whole situation is awful. Mikayla was very very dubious and it also doesnt help the messed up images that were on her OnlyFans.

All I’m going to say is Total White Women death. All sympathy gone out the window. May they rot in hell and may all the Redditors rot in hell. Everyone in this situation, the troons and Mikayla are really an basket case in their own way.

I had never heard of this woman or her organization until she died, nor have I sifted through her drama, but I know for a fact virtue signaling faggots are a big problem in animal conservation. So many losers pile onto benign videos of playing with animals screeching "NOOOO YOU CAN'T GENTLY PICK UP THAT BABY BUNNY YOU'RE TORTURING IT" to fulfill their pathetic hero complex. The same type of freaks who insist the guy they caught glaring in a woman's direction for 0.01 seconds was totally staring, or that child walking with a relative is certainly being human trafficked! I can only imagine how this metastasized in reddit's purity spiraling environment. Whatever went down, I hope the fallout utterly destroys those obnoxious assholes.

Animal Rights autists are some of the most insufferable puritan faggots on the internet. I know there's critiques of SAF and how Mikayla ran it, but that's not going to stop me taking joy in watching these autistic troons and puritanical retards squirm in the fallout of this.

Honestly I want everyone in this whole situation to suffer. There are no amount of words to describe the faggotry on display. Still you’re right on the money when it comes to watching the retards squirm.

It’s basically watching two retards fight but one is naked and the others are hyper-autistic fandom trash. One poses and takes pictures nude with animals and the other side admits to the fact they can’t pet a cat without thinking of molesting it.

Fuck I come back to this thread and this shit just gets worse and worse, I legit don't know who the fuck is worse at this point. Best case scenario, the Save a Fox fans and haters go to war and kill each other so everyone who is sane and doesn't want to fuck animals wins. God damn my eyes are burning right now from some of these images. The only "people" I feel sorry for at this point are the poor animals that are being used as props in all of this insanity.

 

[Mmemes]

Her schlubby husband begging for money right after her death is pure scummy man. I don't care if the banks are at your backdoor you tell em to fuck off and don't leave your house for a month. Grieve for your dead wife you fuck. But no gotta grift while the iron is still hot. Who am I kidding? This is the simp who allowed his pregnant wife to do OF content of course the dumb fuck will grift while her body's still warm. I feel bad for their young daughter hopefully she has good extended family like grandparents because dumb fuck dad won't be there. He obviously allowed his BPD wife to take in more wild animals they could look after all for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok and OnlyFans headpats. Sickening. Sorry guys there's no happy ending for those animals. Hopefully animal control or humanes society puts them down peacefully if it comes to that. Just sad really

Snark subreddits are fathomlessly worse than our fem-coded lolcow threads by a wide margin simply due to the "We did it reddit" belief in their own moral rectitude, which allows for massive A-logging. Compound that with normal "Animal lovers" mental disturbance in this case, their jihads are as brutal as ISIS.

Fundamentally we here on the farms do not operate under the pretence or presumption that we are in any way "The Good Guys". Indeed we have spent a solid decade plus mutually enforcing a culture of open contempt for those who act like hating overtly despicable sex predator derelicts makes them somehow "virtuous" or "brave" by default, not to mention how we coined the term AyyLawg to sneer at those who tried to get updoots by vomiting autistic hatred at a real or alleged cow. Sure we will allow ourselves to cheer on and feel good when some sickfuck zoosadist or kidfucker we have a thread on gets thrown in the can, and in the rare cases the shit we archive might have actually assisted in this happening then all bets are off for a couple days giving eachother dubiously earned tugjobs in celebration, but at the end of the day this is just a neat lil bonus to the daily business that is laughing at those we deem to be clownish yet obnoxious retards.

And speaking of our laughing at those we deem to be clownish yet obnoxious retards, the fact a retard has to be proven to be reliably and egregiously annoying and ridiculous in order for their thread or their popularity on community threads to have any staying power is shit that automatically helps shield us from the kind of shit you see on these subreddits. For us to care about a potential cow they have to be a one man/woman fucking circus in their own right, not a nervous white chick who said the N word while reciting nigger rap lyrics back in 2013 or some twitch autist who mumbled "trans wites" during a 10 viewer stream or a foodie youtuber who did not include a seven hour apology for american colonialism against latinx people during their video about quesadillas. Anyone here who tries to go on some contrived and patently insincere purity spiral over such minutiae to justify screaming performative tard rage against some nobody will inevitably find themselves wearing a pink triangle badge and drowning in autism/MATI ratings by the end of the week and their general aura of terminal autism would result in them getting banned or driven out within a month or two.

 

[Mr. Bung]

Reddit seriously needs to just fucking die at this point

 

[Thornforg]

How does a grown-ass adult get bullied?

Put your entire IRL identity online and I'll show you.

 

[Judge Holden]

Reddit seriously needs to just fucking die at this point

Not just the site. The spirit. The notion that declaring oneself to be a fashionable demographic or pretending to hold a fashionable political stance or wrapping oneself in "wholesome and quirky and silly and goofy" aesthetics somehow makes you less of a disgusting piece of shit when you act like a disgusting piece of shit is something that should forever be subject to contempt and cruelty.

 

[Trans Randy]

Shit, I randomly got a SAF video recommended last night (probably the first I'd seen in a year) and was taken aback by all the comments being about her death. Thought it had happened some time ago and it was cancer or the like.
I mean who knows what kinds of mental issues she's had behind the scenes, this shit is still sickening.

And yeah, not the first to say this, but: KF gets people arrested who actually rape and torture pets. What does it get? DDOSed because it's le Tranny Murdering Nazi Incel Forum. And a documentary gaslighting people into thinking it was actually other animalfuckers who did it.
Reddit actually gets a woman killed because some faggot said "erm, actually touching a fox's hind legs like that is animal abuse" and nothing fucking happens.

Hope that in spite of these absolute psychos, the SAF farm can survive. And I hope the snarkers realize that they, more than anyone, have put these animals at a greater risk than anyone else. Scum.

 

[Lapsus of the bepsus]

holy fuck r8 me l8 but i used to watch her videos sometimes and really liked them, its cute fucking animals dude. never seemed like she had anything but love for the animals even though most people who do this for a career tend to be a little nutty which she also was.
redditors really are the fucking scum of the earth. you cant even have fucking cute fox youtube videos anymore if reddit has anything to say about it. i absolutely cant wait for the inevitable massive scandal that ends up toppling that website and making everyone whos ever participated in it look like a giant retard

 

[Cat On Keyboard]

By having people fuck with their business, their family, and them personally?

That's harassment. Bullying sounds like she killed herself over mean words on the internet.

 

[Maggots on a Train v2]

There are no bullies like animal rights trolls bullies. You can see an ordinary video of someone petting a cat and trolls will accuse the video maker of Mengele-level animal abuse. There are some trolls who think even keeping pets is a form of abuse. I strongly suspect the people who bullied Mikayla were either jealous of her, or people who got a rise out of attacking an obviously vulnerable person.

This woman was exactly what the majority of obese legbeards and troons wish they could be, and "animal" people are batshit insane and vindictive, she didn't stand a chance online. She should have cut back personal posting and had her husband moderate her accounts.

 

[Quintus]

She seemed like a very lovely person. The world is lesser without her.

Careful dude, you're going to get a bone-crushing puzzle piece rating.
Because apparently, not being cheerful about normal people with cute animals killing themselves is very autistic and bluepilled and cringe.

 

[Ponzo]

So let me get this straight

Tumblr a site moderated by tranny furry zoophiles
Reddit, another site moderated by tranny furry zoophiles
Kazeolion, a tranny furry zoophile.


and the hate campaign was likely organized on discord, a platform moderated by tranny furry zoophiles.


....I dont know fellas, I think there seems to be something linking all this together.

I don't like to defend a thot, but some people here and there are acting as if she stuffed one of the foxes up her ass like she's Zinnia Jones. She ain't the first woman to take a sexy pic with a pet.
