JTEXSouth Africa elephant ban?
I was just talking to a friend at the sci convention and and he heard that USFWS is starting a ban on elephant trophies from South Africa????
Has anyone else heard anything like this????

crbutlerYep, heard the same rumor.
Supposedly the justification is the Chinese are getting their house in order, so we should also.

ijlThe Chinese ban is window dressing. Business as usual inside. And the ARA are not bright enough to see that all bans do is drive trade underground.

boarkillerSounds like we can say “ I’m glad I’ve done elephant hunting when it was possible and somewhat affordable “
Geez, no wonder people get on antigovernment rant and that goes for all governments including UN
