While some backed the prince's comments, many slammed the royal, with one Twitter using posting: "To blame African civilians is to totally misunderstand African history." Speaking at the Tusk conservation awards in London on Tuesday evening, William said increasing pressure on the continent's"wildlife and wild spaces as a result of human population" was presenting a"huge challenge for conservationists, as it does the world over".

In that instance, the royal came under fire for making the remarks as he was expecting a third child.
