Acting locally. Across landscapes. Beyond fences. So no species is left behind.  ## We develop and implement recovery programs across Australia and its islands for threatened species, especially the forgotten, creepy, crawly, slithery and slimy that underpin all life on earth.

Working with partners, guided by the latest science and traditional ecological knowledge, we empower communities to act.  ### Our Vision A future where Australia’s unique plants and animals thrive, and extinction is a thing of the past. ### Our Purpose We connect and strengthen recovery efforts to save Australia's plants and animals from extinction.  Coordinating nationally. Acting locally. Across landscapes. Beyond fences. So no species is left behind.  ## We're in the midst of an extinction crisis, but we can turn this around The Threatened Species Conservancy is an independent not-for-profit organisation with a mission to work with communities, scientists and government to save Australia’s plants and animals from extinction. We are ecological and threatened species experts with the experience and tenacity to tackle the challenging task ahead. Fostering connections between people and the natural world through targeted on-ground actions is at the core of what we do.
