President Trump on Sunday said that his administration will soon announce its decision on the controversial practice of allowing elephant trophies to be imported into the U.S., though he seemed to cast doubt on a decision lifting a ban on the practice.
“Big-game trophy decision will be announced next week but will be very hard pressed to change my mind that this horror show in any way helps conservation of Elephants or any other animal,” Trump tweeted.

Trump’s remark comes after he said Friday he was putting the decision on hold amid a flurry of criticism.
