AI overview

Ivory is a hard, smooth material from the tusks of elephants and other animals that craftspeople throughout history have carved into decorative objects and artwork. It matters today primarily because the ivory trade has driven elephants toward extinction, making ivory a symbol of wildlife conservation efforts and international trade restrictions.
