Fake elephant tusks made of PVC pipes, left, which were used to replace stolen original tusks, and the real ones, right, can be seen inside a storage room at the Parks and Wildlife office at Manila's Quezon city Wednesday March 3, 2010, in the Philippines. A Philippine wildlife officer is suspected of stealing more than 1,500 pounds (700 kilograms) of smuggled elephant tusks seized last year in an embarrassing setback for the country's anti-poaching efforts said Parks and Wildlife Director Theresa Mundita Lim. The stolen ivory worth $65,000 was part of of a 8,000-pound (4,000 kilograms) shipment of tusks that was impounded at Manila airport last July and turned over for disposal to the Government's Protected Areas and Wildlife Bureau.

A Philippine Parks and Wildlife worker points out with his foot the markings on real elephant tusks inside a storage room at the Parks and Wildlife office at Manila's Quezon city Wednesday March 3, 2010, in the Philippines. A Philippine wildlife officer is suspected of switching real tusks with replicas made of PVC pipes to steal more than 1,500 pounds (700 kilograms) of smuggled elephant tusks seized last year in an embarrassing setback for the country's anti-poaching efforts said Parks and Wildlife Director Theresa Mundita Lim.
