Perhaps we shouldn't be so categorical about it. If it is for research or scientific purposes, for instance, that is one thing. When it is for the use of an aphrodisiac or supposed medicinal purposes in the eastern Arctic and you have terribly inflated prices for parts of animals, then it becomes a real problem area.
I know that the Member says, what is the difference between selling the skin of a polar bear and selling off certain parts of it? The value of the fur is a trophy. It is kept for a few decades. A part of a polar bear, like the gall bladder, is probably consumed very quickly and the demand just increases. Pretty soon, the skin is worthless compared to specific parts of the animal. That is what is being found with certain species, like rhinoceros horns, where the demand for elephant tusks is gone to the point where these animals are on the verge of extinction. These animals are being poached relentlessly by people who don't even make $300 a year and are being asked by people for so much money to go out and kill these animals and bring the horns or tusks back. That is the difficulty we face. It is not to say that they should be totally banned or even if it is all illegal. It is just that we have a certain point of view that, until now, has not been a problem. We could see the onset of poaching here in the Northwest Territories if we are not careful about the way that we approach these issues. Thank you.
