at bristol university, dr rebecca shepherd, with help from professor lister and others, has found a quickpiece of equipment at airports around the world called a raman spectrometer, and this is already used in the identification of materials for things like drugs and unidentified liquids, so we're trying to repurpose this to tell the difference between elephant and mammoth ivory. essentially, it shines a laser at a sample, and the way that laser bounces back to the detector can tell you really detailed information about what a material is made of. there are people running legitimate businesses carving mammoth ivory, and presumably your technique will be useful for them because it gives them a way of proving, look, this is legal mammoth ivory. absolutely. it can be used tojust prove that a sample is what it says it is. is there a lot of interest from law enforcement in this new technique? there is. i've been talking to people within border force in the uk and the uk wildlife crime agency, and there is potential use for this in law enforcement in the uk. you're also thinking about different
