In a recent post citing NaturalNews’ article on Prince William’s call for urgent depopulation of Africa, William had expressed that:
“the population growth in Africa is putting a tremendous amount of pressure on the natural world and driving many species of animals to extinction.”
Not widely known however, is the fact that the Royal family are avid hunters of animals, including both Africa’s and their own, to an extraordinarily extent.

Prince Philip proudly poses with tiger he slaughtered 50 years before Cecil the Lion outrage

The Duke of Edinburgh also killed a crocodile and six mountain sheep on the three-day hunt in 1961 despite protests from British and Indian politicians
At the start of the 20th century India was home to 100,000 tigers, but numbers crashed in the years following independence in 1947.
Over the past 30 years Prince Philip has killed many kinds of animals.
Figures compiled from press reports by the anti-bloodsports lobby suggest that in Britain alone he has shot at least 30,000 pheasants.
He has also killed deer, rabbit, hare, wild duck, snipe, woodcock, teal, pigeon and partridge in the UK. Prince Philip used to shoot wild boar in Germany.

This is awful isn’t it? Just read on another post of a much loved iconic wolf in your country shot by trophy hunters. I think personally the agenda is killing all the wild food.

I don’t get it. These are magnificent animals. No shame at all in these brutes who “trophy” hunt rare species.
