🦊❤️ Mikayla Raines & Save A Fox: Giving Rescued Foxes a Second Chance at Life
In a quiet corner of Minnesota, Mikayla Raines has created a sanctuary where rescued domestic foxes get a second chance at life. She is the founder of Save A Fox Rescue, a nonprofit organization that saves and cares for foxes born in captivity — often from fur farms, failed pet situations, or illegal breeders.
🌱 How It All Started
Mikayla grew up with a love for animals, especially exotic species. In 2017, she officially founded Save A Fox, starting with just a few rescues. Over the years, she’s saved hundreds of foxes, turning her backyard into one of the most unique fox rescues in the world.
🧠 Unknown Fact: Mikayla is a licensed wildlife rehabilitator and once worked in veterinary care before focusing full-time on fox rescue.

💬 Why Her Work Matters

🌎 "Every fox we save is a voice against cruelty and a symbol of hope."
