Beyond rhino horn—wildlife conservation for North Yemen
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 April 2009
Abstract
North Yemen banned the import of rhinoceros horn in 1982. There is still a demand for the horn to make dagger handles, however, and to meet this some is still smuggled into the country. This illegal trade threatens the world's last populations of rhinoceros and in late 1987 the author went to North Yemen to study the problem and to devlop a conservation strategy.
