NEW: Famous YouTuber and fox rescuer sadly takes her own life due to online bullying, according to her husband.

Horrible.

29-year-old Mikayla Raines took her life after suffering from mental health issues and online bullying.

"She couldn’t bear what she was feeling any longer, and she ended her life," her husband, Ethan Raines, said.

"It breaks my heart that someone who is selfless and devoted her life to animals could have so much negativity pointed at her."

"To those of you that pushed her to this, every one of you that had been responsible for making her feel this way, I wish you had to feel what she felt."

Raines had more than XXX million subscribers on YouTube and X million followers on TikTok.

She started SaveAFox Rescue, an animal rescue nonprofit, in 2017 at the age of XX.

She leaves behind her husband and young daughter.
