BRINGING BIOTECHNOLOGIES TO CONSERVATION

Revive & Restore is the leading wildlife conservation organization promoting the incorporation of biotechnologies into standard conservation practice. Our mission is to enhance biodiversity through the genetic rescue of endangered and extinct species. Our vision is to revive biodiversity and restore ecosystems for millennia to come.

Advancing alternatives to horseshoe crab blood

Every year, hundreds of thousands of horseshoe crabs are harvested for their blood, despite the availability of safe and effective alternatives. We advocate for the adoption of synthetic alternatives to blue blood for endotoxin testing.
