Abstract
Poaching has been contributing to the rapid decline of the African elephant population throughout the past decade. After noticing the species’ endangerment, multiple countries and global organizations established treaties and regulations to constrain the worldwide ivory trade. Though the overall number of elephants killed has dropped in recent years due to the public’s increased awareness of African elephant poaching, it is necessary to develop economic instruments that diminish the ivory in the market to eliminate the threat of poaching. In this research essay, we explain the reasons for the emergence of the ivory products market and ivory demands, and we will suggest two appropriate solutions other than the currently existing political approaches.
