Ivory is illegal in many parts of the world because elephants are an endangered species. I know that where I live the natives are still allowed to hunt walri and sell their ivory as long as it is part of traditional artwork. I don't think that the artwork is extremely expensive, but not cheap either.

Ivory is considered precious for several reasons. Firstly, its history as a luxury material and its association with wealth and status contribute to its perceived value. Secondly, the scarcity and difficulty in obtaining ivory, particularly from elephants, has led to its high price.
