Narrator: If only their ivory were not so valuable! Until recently, the tusks of 40,000 elephants were exported each year, to be carved into fancy figures, billiard balls, and piano keys.
Conventional but beautiful documentary with a warning of how to treat our planet that is still valid, if not even more. Victor de Kowa's narration is a bit too cosy; the fine music is that typical 50's documentary music, a genre that, alas, became extinct somewhere in the 60's (like probably some the animals in this film): Sic Transit Gloria Mundi.
