Swooping perilously low over the African savannah, Prince Harry brings the skill and courage he honed as a war-zone pilot to the battle to save elephants. The daring Prince has been playing a key role in relocating the endangered species to a wildlife sanctuary in northern Malawi. Our exclusive photographs show Harry, wearing khaki shorts, a dark green T-shirt and baseball cap, sitting in the co-pilot’s seat as the aircraft hovers above the vast Liwonde National Park.

Prince Harry has seen first hand how battle injuries can leave troops and their families devastated. And the former Apache helicopter pilot has now backed calls to award all British service personnel wounded in the of duty with a Purple heart-style medal. Harry, 31, who served on the front line in Afghanistan , has long campaigned for injured troops and there are thousands still living with the physical and mental damage caused by fighting in the war on terror since 9/11 in 2001. A military source said: “Prince Harry is a huge ambassador for the wounded and feels it is hard to understand why there is no recognition for the wounded.

The 31-year-old royal, who is currently in Malawi to help relocate elephants under threat from poachers, helped to bring the injured croc into shore and remove a metal hook from it's mouth, getting stuck in with the rest of the team. “The man has balls! The whole time you’re thinking how you could get bitten as the croc was not tranquillised and he could seriously hurt you at any stage." Harry repeatedly told the camp that he didn't want to be called a Prince for the trip and sat around the fire with the vets and helicopter pilots who were moving 20 elephants a day.

He may be considered a bit of a ladies Prince all across the land, but what many do not know about Prince Harry is that he is becoming more and more of a People’s Prince every day. The Mirror reported that one day before the 19-year-anniversary of Princess Diana’s death, Prince Harry was in Lesotho, Africa, at an organization called Sentebale, a center that he co-founded in memory of the late Princess Diana to carry on her legacy of HIV and AIDS charity. The name Sentebale means “Forget Me Not.” It is a name that Prince Harry came up with his co-founder Prince Seeiso of Lesotho for the center when it was founded in 2006. On the Sentebale website, Prince Harry said the following. “In 2004 I was 19 and went travelling in my gap year…in the end the thing that had the greatest impact on me was the two months I spent working in Lesotho. I was lucky enough to have an amazing guide in Prince Seeiso. His knowledge and compassion for his country showed me that there could be a way of making a difference in Lesotho that would go far beyond the building projects I worked on. We came up with the name Sentebale, which means “forget-me-not” in Sesotho, the language of Lesotho, and the idea seemed perfect. This charity is a way in which Prince Seeiso and I can remember our mothers, who both worked with vulnerable children and people affected by AIDS.”
