JUST BEEN PRODUCED FOR DISPLAY AT CUSTOMS CHECK POINTS, AND OTHER PUBLIC PLACES. A SIMILAR LEAFLET IS UNDER PRINTING AND WHEN READY WILL BE DISTRIBUTED TO SCHOOLS, TRAVEL AGENTS AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC. A DISPLAY ON 'CONSERVATION AND ENDANGERED SPECIES'' HAS BEEN SET UP IN ONE OF THE COUNTRY PARK VISITOR CENTRES IN MARCH 1988 AND HAS ATTRACTED SOME 37,800 VISITORS SINCE THEN. MOREOVER, 64 SLIDE SHOWS ON ENDANGERED SPECIES HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED IN COUNTRY PARK VISITOR CENTRES FOR 2,900 COUNTRY PARK VISITORS IN 1989. PREPARATIONS ARE UNDERWAY FOR MORE EXHIBITIONS AND SLIDE SHOWS IN COUNTRY PARK VISITOR CENTRES. AFD IS PREPARING, IN CONJUNCTION WITH WWF/HK, FOR AN ENDANGERED SPECIES DISPLAY AT THE AIRPORT. LITTLE OF THIS IS CENTRAL TO THE IVORY PROBLEM, HOWEVER, BUT MOST SHOULD HAVE SOME IMPACT ON THE OTHER AREAS OF ENDANGERED SPECIES CONTROL.
