NAME AND SHAME: WHY is ANGOLA permitting more than TEN THOUSAND pieces of illegal ivory to be openly sold at the Benfica Market near Luanda, Angola?! Two animal researchers recently counted 10,026 pieces of ivory for sale, necklaces, bracelets, carved figurines and whole tusks. And that huge count didnt include backup inventory the sellers kept nearby. Will Sataos tusks be sold there, too?
