Solution

The correct option is D Ivory
African elephants are considered as the world's largest land animals. Despite a ban on the international trade in ivory, African elephants are still being poached in large numbers. Their ivory tusks are the most sought after, but their meat and skin are also traded. The ivory is often carved into ornaments and jewellery. China is the biggest consumer market for such products. Hence, option D is the correct answer.
