There's more to this story than meets the eye. A DC judge found the Obama-era ban to be improper. The Trump admin is trying to follow the court's order and re-do protections. FWS claims this will help conservation efforts. We'll see.

Thanks for this. Gives me some hope that he’s trying to make the ban a more solid one.

Yes, it's a complex issue but it seems the Trump admin had no choice given the DC court's opinion in the Safari Club Int'l suit. I don't know what the effect will be on the future of African elephants, though.

Because the Trump boys whined and cried about how they don't get to bring home souvenirs from the sh*thole countries they go to kill endangered species in.

Like what is the point of wasting time lifting this kind of ban? Don’t you have more important things to worry about? Ridiculous
