The Frozen Ark - Biobanking the Genetic Material of Endangered Species

This Frozen Ark is a UK based charity with a vision to conserve the genetic heritage of endangered animals, both wild and domestic species, before they are irretrievably lost. Led by a group of ambitious Trustees, The Frozen Ark works practically seeking to secure this heritage by collecting and conserving genetic material of endangered animals and providing coordination, infrastructure and advice on managing and maintaining these materials through working with UK and international partners.
