Ban Ivory in Missouri

The Issue

Researchers have found that we lose an elephant every 15 minutes due to poaching. This means that we are losing 96 elephants every single day! It means elephants could become extinct in the wild in as little as ten years. We can stop the poaching by decreasing the demand for Ivory, simply by banning the sale of ivory products right here in Missouri. Here at Grant's Farm, we believe that only elephants should wear ivory. That's why we want the state of Missouri to follow the example of other states and ban the sale of ivory. This petition will be sent to our Missouri State Representatives and Senators.
