Conservation Centers for Species Survival (C2S2) is a consortium of conservation facilities that collectively oversee extensive natural habitats intended to support large, self-sustaining populations of highly endangered species. By merging scientific and managerial expertise across participating centers, the organization focuses on studying and developing populations ex situ and in situ, aiming to generate knowledge and living populations that can benefit species in the wild. The network emphasizes research in areas such as animal husbandry, reproductive biology, endocrinology, nutrition, genetics, behavior, health, and ecology, leveraging large, naturalistic spaces to support significant animal groupings. The aim is to manage populations on a landscape scale to inform conservation outcomes in natural settings, with the ultimate goal of benefiting species in their native environments.

Based in Glen Rose, Texas, C2S2 operates through a collaboration that includes well-known conservation facilities, and it coordinates efforts to preserve threatened wildlife that require large land areas and minimal public disturbance. The organization describes itself as a group of centers that share resources and expertise to advance conservation science and practical population management for some of the world’s most endangered animals. Its work encompasses both ex situ and in situ approaches, reflecting a holistic strategy to conserve species through both controlled environments and habitat-based programs.
