Mail on Sunday's Martin Fletcher goes inside the warehouse in Tanzania
Dar es Salaam holds 34,000 tusks ripped from 17,000 elephants
The tusks would be worth some £150million on China's black market
Biggest is nearly 7ft long, weighs 191lb and takes three people to lift
Last month, MoS asked how Prince of Wales and Cameron could shake the hand of the Tazanian PM who has presided over slaughter
Minister for Natural Resources and Tourism invited MoS to Tanzania
‘We have nothing to hide,’ Lazaro Nyalandu said

It takes your eyes, and your brain, a moment to adjust as you move from the dazzling Tanzanian sun into the dusty, dimly lit warehouse.
Workers stand by a pile of elephant tusks, systematically weighing each one on a large red Avery scale.
Behind them, rows of tall metal shelves recede into the gloom. They are stacked solid with tusks, each pair the sole remnant of a once-magnificent elephant.


More tusks lie in sacks on the concrete floor. It is an appalling, sickening sight.
This is the world’s largest ivory stockpile. More than 34,000 tusks weighing roughly 125 tons are stored in the warehouse behind  the Ministry of Natural Resources and Tourism in Dar es Salaam. They would be worth about £150 million on China’s black market.
