San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance

Conservation-science nonprofit behind the San Diego Zoo and Safari Park. Runs the Frozen Zoo — the world's largest cryobank of living cell cultures (~10,000 samples across ~1,000 species), the genetic foundation for conservation genomics and cloning (the Przewalski's horse "Kurt" in 2020 and the black-footed ferret "Elizabeth Ann" in 2021 were cloned from its cell lines). An overlooked life-sciences institution anchoring San Diego's genomics cluster alongside Torrey Pines, Salk, and Sanford Burnham.
