This is the best summary I could come up with:
Esther's owners Steve Jenkins and Derek Walter announced on social media that she died in her sleep Wednesday.
She was calm and peaceful, and fell asleep with her dad Steve by her side," a post on Esther's Facebook page said.
In 2017, Esther fell ill and a fundraising campaign kicked off to purchase a large animal CT scanner that is located at the University of Guelph.
Money not used for the CT scanner was used to create an emergency medical fund for other sanctuaries.
Jenkins and Walter said on Facebook they are going to take a break to process the news of Esther's death.
"While we understand many of you will have questions, and we will have the answers for you , but we are going to take a little break to process the situation," the post read.
