Prince Harry formalized his involvement in safeguarding the rhinoceros by becoming the new and first Royal Patron of the Rhino Conservation Botswana.

Prince Harry told the American magazine "Town and Country" that he felt more at ease in Africa. Apparently, the young son of Prince Charles and the late Lady Diana is not ready to stop going to this continent. Already involved in Lesotho and Botswana with his Sentebale Foundation - which helps vulnerable children, especially those who are HIV-positive and / or whose parents have died from AIDS-, the thirty-year-old has taken on a new responsibility in Africa. The Rhino Conservation Botswana (RCB) announced on Thursday January 19th 2017 that Harry was now their new royal patron.

THe Rhino Conservation Botswana monitors and protects black and white rhinoceros from southern Africa and moves them to Botswana. "Here, thanks to strong anti-poaching laws of the government and the support of the army, rhinoceros can prosper - and ultimately one of the last great hopes for the survival of their race," says the association on its site Internet.

The news was immediately relayed on the Kensington Palace's Twitter and an opportunity to publish several photographs of the younger Wales actively participating in September 2016 in a Rhino Conservation Botswana operation to equip electronic monitoring devices for critically endangered black rhinoceroses.

A video was also shared. Prince Harry is seen in action with his friends the rhinos during this mission in the Okavango Delta.

Regarding his new "royal patron", the Rhino Conservation Botswana points out on its website that it has highlighted: "I have been lucky enough to visit Botswana for more than 20 years and I am incredibly happy to be able to 'Call it my second home. Being the Patron of RCB is the opportunity to give something back to a country that gave me a lot. " He added: "It is time for us to start honoring and supporting countries that take the lead in conservation."

When Prince Harry was offered orange shoes by the Dutch team, he had the shoes immediately. When a 7 year old child who lost a leg came to see him, he held him tightly in his arms. When the British paracyclist team member Jaco van Gass, winner of the cycling road race was held near him, he mimed biting into his gold medal. Surely, the younger son of Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana now an Army Officier lived the 2nd edition of its Invictus Games with all the informality, kindness and generosity that characterizes it.

We saw, applauded, encourage, congratulate, laughing, joking ... In the stands as the edge of courts, rinks or the pool, the grand-son of Queen Elizabeth II has not lost a beat competition which saw compete in ten disciplines 500 competitors from 14 different countries (not 15 as initially planned, the Iraqi team in the end that did not participate). Men and women, all were former soldiers now veterans, injured or disabled.

"The competition was fierce with the highest performance in a number of trials," said Harry at the closing ceremony this Thursday, May 12 Captain Wales continued: "But what inspired me was the courage to go to the start line, to go on the field or diving into the pool, motivated by the objective to give the best of yourself mêmes- medal or no medal. "

The Invictus Games was launched in London in September 2014 by Prince Harry, who has been particularly marked by his Army brothers and sisters in arms wounded when military himself, he was conducting missions in Afghanistan. This second edition took place from May 8th to 12th, 2016 in Orlando, Florida. The third is already announced. It will be held in September 2017 in Toronto, Canada.

If life of a prince of the British crown undeniably has its advantages, it is not without drawbacks. Prince Harry spoke with British media the "Sunday Times", when told that "little privacy," he has left. "If I find a girlfriend, I do my best for her and I are at home together before his private life is inevitably invaded. The other concern is that when I speak to a girl, it's like she is suddenly my wife and people will knock on her door, "says Harry, who has kept these two serious relationships in recent years, with Cressida Bonas and before that, Chelsea Davy.

For the young prince, now a darling of the media, things have not always been easy. He said he experienced moments "very dark" when an Australian newspaper revealed that he was engaged in the military in Afghanistan. "Having to go and leave my friends out there ... It was one of the worst moments of my life," he explains to the "Times." However, if the army lacks the prince says he could not find a normal job. "I seriously thought about finding work. I did ten years in the army, it was the best job in the world. I wanted the company consider myself that way. It do not help me to stay home, ass in a chair-and I mean the part of the body, I said, it's not a dirty word. "However, finding a job like any other when is part of "the Firm" as it sometimes called the British royal family, is not so easy. "Some jobs are inaccessible, unfortunately."

Prince George and Princess Charlotte uncle, the children of his brother William and Catherine Duchess of Cambridge, is not done illusions about his future. "I am in a privileged position and I will use it as long as I can or until I become boring. Or until George becomes more interesting than me, "he amuses. Very committed to the veterans, the Prince is currently involved in the Invictus Games, a sporting event for veterans. Yet Harry suspects that its ability to raise capital depends on his sympathy. "There's nothing worse than through a period of your life when you contribute to change and suddenly, for one reason or another, be it the media or a change in perception people to you, you dive. Want to contribute but nobody listens to you, "he says.

His commitment, he said, is the legacy of his mother, Diana. "I do not track my way consciously imagining that my mother would be proud of me. But I think she would be very proud, "said the prince. "With me, there is nothing hidden, everything is authentic. I always try to bring some fun and joy in everything I do. That probably comes from my mother, I try to fill that void. In his footsteps or those of the queen, it's hard, "says Harry.

Before leaving for the United States, Prince Harry sat down with "People" magazine. A rare opportunity for him to discuss the death of his mother Lady Diana.

Prince Harry steals Prince on the cover of the latest issue of "People". The grand son of Queen Elizabeth II appears smiling in his blue suit, while in thumbnail appears an old photo of a child sucking her thumb in the arms of his mother Lady Diana. As the singer of Purple Rain passed away on April 21th, it is relegated to a small photo at the top of the page.

If Harry is the one of "People", it is because he gave a long interview to the American tabloid from his home at  Kensington Palace in London, before flying to Canada and the United States where are held the 2nd Invictus Games. If course addresses these kinds of OJ that compete in ten disciplines of former military men and women who have been injured as part of their commitment to their homeland, the young man of 31 years also refers to other topics. Among them, the younger brother of Prince William does not fail, once again, to talk about their dear mother too soon disappeared and explain how it guides his steps.


"All I want to do is make my mother extremely proud. That's all I ever wanted to do, "said Harry, who was not yet 13 when the Princess of Wales passed away August 31st, 1997 as a result of his injuries from a car accident in the tunnel bridge l'Alma in Paris.

"When she died, it was a gaping hole, not only for us but for a lot of people around the world," recalled the younger son of Prince Charles. "If I can try to fill a small part of that, my task will be accomplished," he says. Harry also he revealed that he intended to spend the rest of his life trying to fill "whenever possible" the void caused by the death of the generous and caring Princess of Wales. "And as William will," he added.

However, Prince Harry said he does not consciously modeled his charitable commitment on his mother. "I like what I do. But I do not do these things because I feel that my mother wished that I have to do ", he told, while acknowledging:" I know there are a lot of my mother me. I do a lot of things she would probably do. "
