I have always wondered if the tusks could be mostly removed without killing the animal.
they wont stand still when you are sawing them off.

You might as well kill the elephant if you are taking the tusks. You’d be crippling them and then sending them back into the wild to be prey for the lions.
In these days of growing human ears on the backs of mice, you'd think someone would bioengineer some means of growing ivory sans elephant.
