13．Each year，more than 30，000 elephants are poached（偷猎）for their ivory．But recently，china-the world's largest market for ivory products-promised to end its sale of ivory．
"Ending legal sales of ivory in China is the greatest step to reduce elephant poaching in African，"says Peter Knights，CEO of the conservation group Wild-Aid．"We praise China for its leadership．"
   Chinese leaders say that the nation will gradually reduce its amount to zero．They are also encouraging other countries to follow China's lead by taking action against the illegal ivory trade．
   Africa once had as many as 3.5 million elephants．Today，only about 500，000 remain．Conservation experts say elephants could someday disappear entirely if the illegal ivory trade does not end．
   The international trade of ivory was banned in 1989．However，China has still allowed ivory to be sold．In addition，the US-the second-largest market for ivory-still allows the trade of ivory acquired before the ban．Europeans still support the ivory market by selling ivory from long ago．Many poachers are taking advantages of these rules．They are still illegally hunting elephants for ivory，but selling the ivory in legal markets．
  Last week，the US destroyed more than a ton of ivory in New York City's Time Square to show its commitment to ending the illegal ivory trade．China held a similar ivory-crushing event last month，and other countries have done the same in recent years．
  Some wildlife supporters say destroying ivory will reduce the supply of ivory，leading to more poaching．But organizers say the events will raise awareness of the illegal ivory trade and increase support for ending it．
"China，the US and the other major ivory-consuming countries hold the key to saving Africa's elephants，"says Ginette Hemley，senior vice president of Wildlife Conservation at the World Wildlife Fund．
