        why don't they auction them off and use the proceeds to fund anti-poaching efforts? seems like a more economical use of the items.

        I see what you mean but that would promote and further normalize the commercialization of ivory

        I don't get what destroying them does? When elephants are gone a museum of why they are gone would be a great reminder of the cost

        It's sad that something good could be done with the tusks, then funds would be used in Africa to help animal reserves.
