Experts warn that African elephants could be extinct within a generation unless more action is taken to stop the lucrative ivory trade. The poaching and trafficking of tusks is being driven by the appetite for ivory in Asia, and is fuelled by corruption. In parts of Central Africa, 95 per cent of the elephants are now gone. Tanzania has lost 65 per cent in the last five years, and the main trafficking route is through the Kenyan port of Mombasa.
