As the only source of ivory is from the tusks of elephants, the trade in ivory has been a big contributor to why elephants have been heavily poached, and in some areas actually all killed off.
And since it's really hard to tell if a piece of ivory is old enough to be from the time when hunting elephants was seen as OK, or if it s from an animal that has been recently poached, the simple solution to avoid dealing with parts of poached animals is not to deal in ivory at all - and that's a complete ban on (trading in) ivory.

Are elephants on the verge of being extinct?
No but they are endangered. Nations around the world have put a ban on hunting elephants for their tusks. Also, the sale of Ivory (elephant tusk) is a crime in most nations. Since ivory is the main reason why elephants were killed in thousands, the ban on ivory sale has actually helped reduce the number of poaching incidents in Africa and India. Still there is illegal sale of ivory in the black market and law enforcement authorities around the globe are trying to catch such criminals to help the elephants.
