Ivory Poaching started during the late 1800's. before the start of ivory poaching there were millions of elephants in the world in both Africa and India. But because of hunting for ivory, their numbers are greatly reduced. There are only a few thousand of these giants left in the wild in both Africa and India.
I'm not sure but I do know that they came back last month!

ivory is expensive
Poaching of animals be checked in various ways. The best way is to discourage the trade of ivory which is the most common motive for poaching.
The Ivory trade is not supposed to be happeninganywhere, because it has been banned, due to excessive poaching of Rhinos and Elephants.
The only way the demand for ivory can be lowered is to stop the poaching and people buying it.
Men and women who want ther tusks for ivory. Isn't it sad? ~Casey~

it is NOT useful except for making trinkets an jewelry, this is one of the most abhorrent crimes (poaching ivory)that is going on today, so if there would not be a market for ivory this would not occur, many countries including Canada and the USA as well as many countries in Europe have put an absolute ban on ivory.
Yes, ivory is valuable. Its value is attributed to its color and carving capabilities. Now that poaching is being severely punished, its value has skyrocketed. Its value has also risen due to the declining elephant population.
