Abstract
Conservation African elephant populations have been plummeting as a result of poaching. Some states with wild elephant populations have promoted a complete ban on ivory trade, whereas others argue for limited trading to raise funds for conservation efforts. In a Perspective, Biggs et al. propose a route out of this deadlock that explicitly acknowledges the different moral perspectives. Building on successful conflict resolution in other areas such as climate change policy, the authors argue for frequent, iterative interactions among a small group of key parties to foster trust and agreement and develop locally appropriate and workable solutions.
