Explanation:

IUCN is an organ of the United Nations, and CITES is an international agreement between governments. (Incorrect - IUCN is not an organ of the United Nations. It is an independent international organization. CITES is indeed an international agreement between governments.)

IUCN runs thousands of field projects around the world to better manage natural environments. (Correct - IUCN is actively involved in field projects to manage and conserve natural environments globally.)

CITES is legally binding on the States that have joined it, but this Convention does not take the place of national laws. (Correct - CITES is a legally binding treaty, but it operates in conjunction with national laws. It does not replace or supersede national legislation.)

So, the correct combination is "2 and 3 only," which corresponds to option 2.
