Prince: The Lionheart

Royal protection: Harry monitors the sedated lion's breathing while vets carry out tests 

Prince Harry is pictured fearlessly monitoring the lion's heart and helping vets to perform tests while it is sedated. He has been working with a team tracking the animals at Palmwag Reserve in Namibia's north-west Kunene region. Harry, 30, revealed he wants to do more in Africa and plans to work with his brother to encourage new conservation initiatives. The Prince opened up about the perils of living in the shadow of bodyguards and joked he was a 'bad uncle' for missing the family photographs with Princess Charlotte. His encounter with the king of the jungle came after he told his companions - two royal protection officers, two vets, a Namibian police officer, a senior tracker-guide, and Simson - that he desperately wanted to see lions up close and personal in the wild.

Curious: Prince Harry watches as a ranger checks that a male lion radio collar is properly attached during his three month mission across Africa
