Is it illegal to own rhino horns?

In most countries, it is illegal to own rhino horns. This is because rhinos are endangered species, and their horns are highly valuable in the illegal wildlife trade. The sale and purchase of rhino horns is illegal in many countries, and possession of rhino horns without a permit is also illegal. In addition, the import and export of rhino horns is strictly prohibited under the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).
