I thought this was an interesting article:

It's mostly concerned with ivory, but there is a mention of coral and other sea goods as well.

Wow. Sometimes I forget about things like this. Thanks for sharing!

I'm more concerned over 4,000 elephants being slaughtered the story spoke about

its been like this for awhile. I spoke to a DEC personnel last year and he said ivory import is illegal but people still do it.

Well, obviously those things concern me as well. :happysad: I like to raise awareness when I can. But lest someone point out that none of that has anything to do with reefkeeping, I thought I would point out the coral as well.
