Hi Richard,
With thanks for support from Mr Epstein we're pleased=to report breaking news today that Hong Kong's largest ivory retaile=, Chinese Arts & Craft=, has stopped selling elephant ivory. The China government-owned chain, which oterates four stores in Hong Kong, told Reuters that it now only sells mammoth ivory. WildAid consultants visited the stores and =onfirmed that all elephant ivory has been removed from shelves, they are n=t mis-selling it as mammoth ivory, and is not for sale 'under the coun=er.'
