| Loxodonta africana | African Elephant | Populations of Botswana, Namibia and South Africa only; for the exclusive purpose of allowing: 1) trade in hunting trophies for non-commercial
purposes; 2) trade in live animals for in situ conservation programmes; 3) trade in hides; 4) trade in leather goods for non-commercial
purposes; 5) trade in registered raw ivory (for Botswana and Namibia, whole tusks and pieces; for South Africa, whole tusks and cut
pieces of ivory that are both 20 cm or more in length and one kilogramme or more in weight) subject to the following: I) only registered
government-owned stocks, originating in the State (excluding seized ivory and ivory of unknown origin) and, in the case of South
Africa, only ivory originating from the Kruger National Park); ii) only to trading partners that have been verified by the Secretariat,
in consultation with the Standing Committee, to have sufficient national legislation and domestic trade controls to ensure that the
imported ivory will not be re-exported and will be managed in accordance with all requirements of Resolution Conf, 10.10 (Rev. CoP12)
concerning domestic manufacturing and trade; iii) not before May 2004, and in any event not before the Secretariat has verified the
prospective importing countries, and the MIKE programme has reported to the Secretariat on the baseline information (e.g. elephant
population numbers, incidence of illegal killing); iv) a maximum of 20,000 kg (Botswana), 10,000 kg (Namibia) and 30,000 kg (South

of the trade are used exclusively for elephant conservation and community conservation and development programmes within or adjacent
to the elephant range; vi) only after the Standing Committee has agreed that the above conditions have been met. On a proposal from
the Secretariat, the Standing Committee can decide to cause this trade to cease partially or completely in the event of non-compliance
by exporting or importing countries, or in the case of proven detrimental impacts of the trade on other elephant populations. All other specimens shall be deemed to be specimens of species included in Appendix I and the trade in them shall be regulated accordingly. |
| Loxodonta africana | African Elephant | Populations of Zimbabwe only; for the exclusive purpose of allowing: 1) export of hunting trophies for non-commercial purposes; 2)
export of live animals to appropriate and acceptable destinations; 3) export of hides; 4) export of leather goods and ivory carvings
for non-commercial purposes. All other specimens shall be deemed to be specimens of species included in Appendix I and the trade
in them shall be regulated accordingly. To ensure that where a) destinations for live animals are to be "appropriate and acceptable"
and/or b) the purpose of the import is to be "non-commercial", export permits and re-export certificates may be issued only after
the issuing Management Authority has received, from the Management Authority of the State of import, a certification to the effect
that: in case a), in analogy to Article III, paragraph 3(b) of the Convention, the holding facility has been reviewed by the competent
Scientific Authority, and the proposed recipient has been found to be suitably equipped to house and care for the animals; and/or
in case b), in analogy to Article III, paragraph 3(c), the Management Authority is satisfied that the specimens will not be used
for primarily commercial purposes. |

"CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN ENDANGERED SPECIES OF WILD FAUNA AND FLORA.
The Contracting States,
Recognizing that wild fauna and flora in their many beautiful and varied forms are an irreplaceable part of the natural systems of the earth which must be protected for this and the generations to come;
Conscious of the ever-growing value of wild fauna and flora from aesthetic, scientific, cultural, recreational and economic points of view;
Recognizing that peoples and States are and should be the best protectors of their own wild fauna and flora;
Recognizing, in addition, that international cooperation is essential for the protection of certain species of wild fauna and flora against over-exploitation through international trade;
Convinced of the urgency of taking appropriate measures to this end;
Have agreed as follows:
Article I.—Definitions
For the purpose of the present Convention, unless the context otherwise requires:
- (a) "Species" means any species, subspecies, or geographically separate population thereof;
- (b) "Specimen" means:
- (i) any animal or plant, whether alive or dead;
- (ii) in the case of an animal: for species included in Appendices I and II, any readily recognizable part or derivative thereof; and for species included in Appendix III, any readily recognizable part or derivative thereof specified in Appendix III in relation to the species; and
- (iii) in the case of a plant: for species included in Appendix I, any readily recognizable part or derivative thereof; and for species included in Appendices II and III, any readily recognizable part or derivative thereof specified in Appendices II and III in relation to the species;
- (c) "Trade" means export, re-export, import and introduction from the sea;
- (d) "Re-export" means export of any specimen that has previously been imported;
- (e) "Introduction from the sea" means transportation into a State of specimens of any species which were taken in the marine environment not under the jurisdiction of any State;
- (f) "Scientific Authority" means a national scientific authority designated in accordance with Article IX;
- (g) "Management Authority" means a national management authority designated in accordance with Article IX;
- (h) "Party" means a State for which the present Convention has entered into force.
Article II—Fundamental Principles
1. Appendix I shall include all species threatened with extinction which are or may be affected by trade. Trade in specimens of these species must be subject to particularly strict regulation in order not to endanger further their survival and must only be authorized in exceptional circumstances.
2. Appendix II shall include:
- (a) all species which although not necessarily now threatened with extinction may become so unless trade in specimens of such species is subject to strict regulation in order to avoid utilization incompatible with their survival; and
- (b) other species which must be subject to regulation in order that trade in specimens of certain species referred to in sub-paragraph (a) of this paragraph may be brought under effective control,
3. Appendix III shall include all species which any Party identified as being subject to regulation within its jurisdiction for the purpose of preventing or restricting exploitation, and as needing the cooperation of other parties in the control of trade.
4. The Parties shall not allow trade in specimens of species included in Appendices I, II and III except in accordance with the provisions of the present Convention.
Article III—Regulation of Trade in Specimens of Species Included in Appendix I
1. All trade in specimens of species included in Appendix I shall be in accordance with the provisions of this Article.
2. The export of any specimen of a species included in Appendix I shall require the prior grant and presentation of an export permit. An export permit shall only be granted when the following conditions have been met:
- (a) a Scientific Authority of the State of export has advised that such export will not be detrimental to the survival of that species;
- (b) a Management Authority of the State of export is satisfied that the specimen was not obtained in contravention of the laws of that State for the protection of fauna and flora;
- (c) a Management Authority of the State of export is satisfied that any living specimen will be so prepared and shipped as to minimize the risk of injury, damage to health or cruel treatment; and
- (d) a Management Authority of the State of export is satisfied that an import permit has been granted for the specimen.
