“They spread false rumors, and being the sensitive person she was, it deeply affected her,” Ethan told her followers.
“She tried for years to push through the pain, but this time it was too much.”
The 29-year-old was recently met with “rude words, accusations and name-calling,” which “came from some of those she considered close friends” and members of “other animal sanctuaries.”

Mikayla had reportedly been battling different health conditions including depression, borderline personality disorder, and autism. She underwent years of therapy and had taken different medications.

He said in the emotional video: “As many of you know she was on the autism spectrum and while that made her life very difficult it allowed her to hyperfocus on one thing – and that one thing was obviously animals.
“From a young age she dedicated every waking hour of her life to helping them, whether it was helping a snapping turtle cross the road or saving 500 foxes from a terrible fur farm.
“She was never in it for fame, money or personal gain.”

Ethan also noted that Mikayla was “so sensitive to everything,” which was “a double-edged sword.”
“On one hand, it allowed her endless empathy for those in her care. But it also means that she took everything negative to heart.”
The wildlife activist “felt as if the entire world had turned against her” amid the online bullying campaign, her husband said.
