Ten Years of California's Ivory and Rhino Horn Ban
Original: CDFW News | 10 Years of AB 96 in Action: Ivory and Rhino Horn Ban Gave CDFW the Might to Fight Wildlife Trafficking in California, Around the World
California's Department of Fish and Wildlife is marking ten years of AB 96, the state law banning the sale of ivory and rhinoceros horn. The department credits the statute with giving investigators the legal power to pursue wildlife traffickers operating in California and beyond, closing loopholes that had allowed illegal ivory to be sold within the state despite federal restrictions.
Why now: The wildlife agency is publicly highlighting a decade of enforcement under the ban, drawing renewed attention to anti-trafficking efforts.
