They crushed all of that ivory to make sure that no one could profit from it, and to try to protest the killing of animals (like Elephants) in order to acquire ivory.

There are different opinions about whether crushing ivory will actually do any good, or just raise the price for it on the black market, but the event was well-intentioned.

A squashed square it has four equal sides but no right angles?

If you are assuming that the square would be squashed on top, then the sides of the square would be completely crushed and have a zig-zag look to them, and no, there would not be any right angles. However, if you are assuming the square was crushed at an angle, but still on top, then, theoretically, the two sides of the square hat aren't on top or bottom would get streatched out. In this instance, the square wouldn't have four equal sides, and no right angles.
