A third hard-hitting article on the ivory trade

this one “Blood Ivory” in the current National Geographic. It has a lot of undercover reportage about the Phillipine, Thai, and Chinese ivory market, as Andrew Revkin reports in his blog : http://dotearth.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/09/14/a-report-exposes-how-the-chinese-government-is-fueling-elephant-slaughter/
