Petition Action

Ban domestic trade of ivory to combat elephant death and propose global action.

Petition Details

Recent reports show the devastating effects of elephant poaching for their ivory. Whilst efforts are being made on ground against the horrible violence, it is clear that international demand for ivory drives the killings. The UK should take a leading role and push for the illegality of this trade.
