An emotional Prince Harry came face to face today with the slaughter of Africa’s wildlife when he encountered a mother rhino and its calf killed by poachers.

On Wednesday, the 31-year-old prince shared photos and videos of his summer trip to southern Africa in order to spotlight the threat of poaching to rhinos and elephants.

The Prince is further seen assisting experts in de-horning black rhinos in a desperate attempt to deter poachers who are feeding an insatiable worldwide market.

The carcasses were found on Monday and are thought to have been there for two to three days before they were discovered.

“This belongs to South Africa and it’s been stolen by other people”, he said, gesturing angrily at the carcasses.

PRINCE Harry was left heartbroken after being shown the body of a mother rhino.

Major General Jooste explained how the poachers likely killed the mother rhino first before waiting for the calf to return to then hack it to death.

Prince Harry praised his brother, Prince William, for the work he has done to put the fate of endangered species back on the global agenda.

“None of them had names, so do we not care?”

Maj Gen Jooste said that when Harry was out with them in the summer, he attended poaching scenes and was moved by them. “I can’t say where this is for obvious reasons”, Harry confided.

“I have seen for myself that you and your fellow rangers are doing everything in your power to turn this tide, and we must support your efforts in whatever way we can”, he said.

In a speech to graduating rangers from the Southern African Wildlife College, Harry said a recent court ruling, which lifted a domestic ban on rhino horn trading in South Africa, would have a devastating effect.

“Already this year 1,500 rhinos have been killed in this country”.

“What is the difference between white rhino dung and black rhino dung?” he asked them, to test their knowledge.
