Natural ivory carving: Elephants in the wild are poached primarily for their ivory.
Artificial ivory helps to prevent poaching by providing an althernative material for carving, inlays, piano keys, etc.. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20230908-the-alternative-ivory-sources-that-could-help-save-elephants
