Cameron Edwards and their partner run
Still Water Microsanctuary, a small-scale rescue for birds and tropical fishes based in Cleveland, Ohio. They plan to expand to some extent in the future, but intend to stay a relatively small-scale rescue. The most important lesson they’ve learned from larger sanctuaries and rescues is that becoming too big makes an operation more about the humans running it than the animals rescued. Edwards believes that, instead, animal rescue should be about providing each animal the individualized care they deserve.
