MADAM – Rejoice, rejoice. Another elephant has been saved from slaughter for its tusks by the prompt removal of an unworked ivory gong from a profit-earning display at Sandringham (ATG No 2290).
Elephants throughout the world are doubtless raising their trunks in thanks. We can sleep soundly knowing that this timely action has left organised gangs of elephant murderers quaking in their boots.
Charles Howard
