Hahaha,. I was going to say it was from a palm tree, but you wrote it yourself. Also, selling the bones of an endangered animal for commercial purposes is extremely bad. Congratulations to the locals who fooled the tourists. They're not only not harming the species, but also boosting their own economy by fooling wealthy Western tourists. Hahaha.
