US Ivory/elephant importation bans - legality?
#248815 - 11/06/14 08:50 PM

A question for our US members.

I believe the importation of elephant products/ivory etc has been banned by the USA into the USA.

Does this mean booking an elephant hunt is still legal for US citizens, just that the ivory (etc) can not by imported into the USA now? ie US citizens can still enjoy elephant hunting legally, just not the import of ele trophies?

Thanks.

My understanding is you can hunt legally as a US citizen however you can NO longer import from Zim and Tanzania..Imports of ivory are still allowed from S Africa and Namibia..

Still researching for more info..
