Review of The Ivory Game (2016) by Dorian G — 12 Nov 2016

11/12/16 Netflix.

A terrific documentary with many facets that needs to be told. Kudos to Netflix for backing this project. It is a disturbing, ugly and anger inducing film that exposes the assholes who are poachers, traders, dealers and buyers of African ivory. It is encouraging and positive as it shows the Park Rangers who are courageous enough to take on the poachers, the investigators who are creative and hard working enough to root out the illegal trade and it is heartwarming and educational as you learn of the elephant culture. Lastly it does not show the carnage upclose. Hopefully, this will help save even a few of the dwindling number of these magnificent animals.
