Ua ʻākoakoa nā alakaʻi o ʻApelika ma Lākana e kūkākūkā i nā manaʻo nui e pale aku i nā ʻano mea make ma waena o ʻApelika.
Ua hui ka Duke o Cambridge, ke Kakauolelo o na aina e a me na alakai o na aina Commonwealth o Aferika i ka Poalima 20 o Aperila no na kamailio kiekie e pili ana i ka hoopau ana i ke kalepa holoholona hihiu ma mua o ka halawai honua e hiki mai ana ma Ladana ma hope o keia makahiki.

Ua kūkākūkā ʻia a hoʻopaʻapaʻa ʻia nā manaʻo manaʻo nui e hoʻoponopono i ka hewa, me nā manawa e hoʻoikaika ai i ka hoʻokō kānāwai ma waena o nā palena ʻē aʻe i hiki ai i nā ʻelepani a me nā holoholona ʻē aʻe ke neʻe me ka maluhia a me ka palekana ma ʻApelika.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Kuhina Kuhina ʻo Boris Johnson:

"Ke hana pū nei nā ʻāina he nui o ʻApelika a hana i nā hana ikaika e pale a mālama i kā lākou holoholona makamae akā he pilikia koʻikoʻi kēia i alakaʻi ʻia e nā hui kalaima honua.

"Ma o nā hana aʻoaʻo i alakaʻi ʻia e ʻApelika mākou e hoʻōki ai i kēia hewa pōʻino no ka maikaʻi, a ua mākaukau mākou e kōkua. Ma ʻaneʻi ma UK ke lawe nei mākou i kā mākou mau hoʻolālā ponoʻī no ka pāpā ʻana i ke kūʻai ʻana i nā niho ʻelepani kūloko, a ma ʻOkakopa e hoʻokipa pū wau i kahi hālāwai kūkā ma Ladana no ka hakakā ʻana i ke kālepa holoholona hihiu.

"Hiki iā mākou ke ho'ōki i ka emi ʻana o nā ʻano mea kaulana loa o ka honua a hōʻoia ʻaʻole pono nā hanauna e hiki mai ana e noho i kahi honua me ka ʻole o nā holoholona hihiu."

I ka wā o nā kamaʻilio ʻana, ua hoʻopiʻi ke Kakauolelo haole no nā hopena koʻikoʻi ma ka ʻaha kūkā o ʻOkakopa, e kālele ana i ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa ʻana i ke kālepa holoholona hihiu ma ke ʻano he hewa koʻikoʻi i hoʻonohonoho ʻia, ke kūkulu ʻana i nā hui a me ka pani ʻana i nā mākeke holoholona hihiu hewa ʻole. Ua kūkākūkā ke Kakauolelo ʻĀina a me nā alakaʻi o ʻApelika i nā manawa kūpono no ka hoʻonui ʻana i nā papahana hoʻokō kānāwai aupuni a me nā palena ʻāina e hopu i nā poachers a hoʻōki i nā mea kalepa holoholona.

He mea weliweli nā helu: ma kahi o 20,000 mau elepani ʻApelika i pepehi ʻia e ka poʻe ʻaihue i kēlā me kēia makahiki. Ua emi iho ka nui o ka Elepani Savanna i ka hapakolu mai ka makahiki 2007 a i ka makahiki 2014 a he 9,000% ka pi'i o ka 'ai 'ai rhino ma Aferika Hema. Aia nā holoholona hihiu ma nā wahi he nui o ʻApelika i nā pae pilikia.

ʻO nā Mafias a me nā pūʻulu kalaima i hoʻonohonoho ʻia i ke kikowaena o ka nui o ke kālepa holoholona hihiu hewa ʻole, e alakaʻi ana i nā holoholona i kahi o ka pau ʻana a me ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka mākaʻikaʻi holoholona hihiu i nā kaiāulu e hilinaʻi nei iā ia.

ʻO ke kālepa holoholona hihiu hewa he hewa koʻikoʻi i hoʻonohonoho ʻia me nā loaʻa kālā a hiki i 17 biliona paona i ka makahiki, ʻoi aku ma mua o ka loaʻa kālā hui ʻia o ka Central African Republic, Liberia a me Burundi. ʻO ia ke kumu e hoʻomaka ai ka UK i nā hoʻolālā no ka pāpā ʻana i ke kūʻai ʻana i nā niho ʻelepani kūloko a ma ʻOkakopa e hoʻokipa ai i kahi hālāwai kūkā ma Ladana no ka hakakā ʻana i ke kālepa holoholona hihiu hewa ʻole.

He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:

Here in the UK we are taking forward our own plans for a ban on domestic ivory sales, and in October I will co-host an international conference in London on combating the illegal wildlife trade.
