Ivory

Are the Japanese interested in buying ivory? You might think so, when reading that the Internet search engine Google is targeting its Japanese pages with advertisements for ivory. I would have thought most Japanese people would not want to buy things that you can only get from endangered animals, like elephants. Nevertheless, I hope Google withdraws the advertisements. Just like the wolves in Sweden, the elephants of the world deserve to survive. If they will have a chance to do that, you should not buy ivory or anything else made out of elephants. It is uncalled for, especially as wood, plastic, or metal always works just as well, or better.
