"A National Audubon Society Book"". ...for thousands of years, we have wantonly destroyed elephants for sport and to supply an ivory trade, itself responsible for the enslavement and murder of tens of thousands of our own kind. Then, just when it seemed that the African elephant was doomed to extinction, a miracle happened. Responding to intense popular pressure, governments worldwide began to impose trade bans that ...have brought the ivory trade to a halt, and it now seems that African elephant may survive".
