No. Ivory sales in Cote d'Ivoire are strictly prohibited and tightly watched. Elephant populations of western Africa were decimated by the trade in ivory. Beginning in the 19th century, the area was one of the chief export areas for the ivory trade to Europe and became known as the Ivory Coast (common noun). The country was named by the French who colonized this area.
