What is the ivory trade?

The ivory trade is the commercial, often illegal trade in the ivory tusks of the hippopotamus, walrus, narwhal, mammoth, and most commonly, African and Asian elephants. Ivory has been traded for hundreds of years by people in Africa and Asia, resulting in restrictions and bans.

Ivory was formerly used to make piano keys and other decorative items because of the white colour it presents when processed but the piano industry abandoned ivory as a key covering material in the 1980s in favour of other materials such as plastic. Also, synthetic ivory has been developed which can be used as an alternative material for making piano keys.

Elephant ivory has been exported from Africa and Asia for millennia with records going back to the 14th century BCE.
