I don't know if there's an authority to call? I took pictures of the storefront on Canton Road (near Jade Plaza). Feel ill. :( I read and loved Agony and Ivory. People have no clue. <br /><br />https://www.facebook.com/notes/kathryn-saari/sickening/10150765498472388Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15228988227905838932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189930829940284211.post-42892666606705015292012-02-04T08:30:08.765-05:002012-02-04T08:30:08.765-05:00http://www.saveafricananimals.org/attachments/arti...http://www.saveafricananimals.org/attachments/article/111/china-ivory-timeline.pdf<br /><br />p.2<br /><br />danAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189930829940284211.post-91235265646658342312012-02-02T12:42:50.971-05:002012-02-02T12:42:50.971-05:00Wow @anonymous , Sounds really interesting your co...Wow @anonymous , Sounds really interesting your comment , is it true ?mensajes clarohttp://tedateo.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189930829940284211.post-41277335769698194242011-08-06T01:53:51.444-04:002011-08-06T01:53:51.444-04:00@ Swhalilistreet

Another point is that many Asiatic citizens/''businessmen'' resort to bribery to lure African poachers into killing these elephants and sell them the precious tusks. Still another point is that some countries' policy regarding wild life protection, and especially the elephants, is too ambiguous. They claim that because in some areas, the number of elephants is increasing too fast, their number need to be reduced. This exception is tantamount to leaving the door wide open to all sorts of abuses.<br /><br />Sixty-center.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189930829940284211.post-71260144342729934482011-08-05T00:25:00.409-04:002011-08-05T00:25:00.409-04:00pretty clean is not squeaky clean so:

But the reality is in 2009, China followed Japan, gained the importer status that can legally import ivory from South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, and Zimbabwe, which leave the possibility of illegal trading of ivory wide open. To counter it, African countries can raise the penalty of illegal trading and pressure Chinese government to tighten the custom inspection. Civilian education is also important.<br /><br />http://www.wfjczx.org.cn/xinwen/20094201746012.htm<br /><br />http://intl.ce.cn/specials/zxxx/200807/15/t20080715_16169253.shtml<br /><br /><br /><br />weiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
