Raines created a successful YouTube channel dedicated to her advocacy efforts rescuing foxes from fur farms.
Animal rescue activist and YouTube star Mikayla Raines has died by suicide, according to her husband. She was 29.
Ethan Raines announced her death in an emotional video he posted to her YouTube channel on Monday.
He said that for years his wife suffered from various mental health issues and struggled to cope with online criticism.
“She couldn’t bear what she was feeling any longer, and she ended her life,” he said. “And it breaks my heart that someone who is selfless and devoted her life to animals could have so much negativity pointed at her.”
What difference does it make what they were “raised for”? Black people were raised for slavery, doesn’t make it right. All food animals have the exact same capability to suffer in the same way that dogs and cats can. So what they were raised for is irrelevant.
they aren’t. Cows have their children taken from them in the dairy industry. male chicks are murdered at 1 DAY OLD in the egg industry. Cows, pigs, chickens etc live in their own festering faeces in the meat indsutries.
A perfect demonstration of my point. Thank you.
