About the Book

This thought-provoking work by Ike Sugg presents a critical analysis of the international ban on the ivory trade. The book challenges conventional conservation policies by arguing that sustainable use and clearly defined property rights may offer more effective solutions for protecting elephant populations.

Through a policy-driven approach, the author explores the economic and ecological implications of wildlife conservation strategies, raising important questions about the balance between regulation and sustainable management. The discussion highlights how local communities, incentives, and controlled trade can play a role in preserving endangered species.

Concise yet impactful, this book is ideal for readers interested in environmental policy, wildlife conservation debates, and economic perspectives on natural resource management.
