| Summary: | Outlines the Ivory Trade Review a collaborative study initiated by AERSG and involving CITES and TRAFFIC well as other agencies whose finding and recommendations will be presented to the African Elephants Working Group meeting in July 1989 prior to the CITES Conference being held that later that year.
