Rejected petition Ban the importation and trade of Ivory.

The killing of Rhino's and Elephants is becoming a nightmare. In the last two weeks alone, 14 Rhino have been killed in South Africa. That is one every day.
I want Great Britian to do something great for a change, ban the trade/sales of Ivory.
GB can save these majestic, beautiful creatures.
