And in photos that make us go 'aww', here's Prince Harry Africa hanging out with a baby rhino during his three-month-long "dream job". He's six weeks in but he's looking like he's having the BEST time.
The 30-year-old Prince, who's rocking a beard, is currently working with conservation efforts in Namibia after completing his 10-year-long career in the British military.
During his stay in Africa, he's shadowing veterinarian Dr. Pete Morkel, as well as other conservationists, to curb threats to endangered species on the continent, particularly in South Africa, Tanzania and Botswana.
And as a new snap from Harry's tenure in Africa shows, he's certainly not shy about getting up close with the animals he's working to help.
According to People magazine, Harry was able to hang with three adolescent rhinos, Mia, Manje and Venus. He particularly bonded with Manje, tickling and rubbing her during the visit, according to a statement from South African National Parks. Later on, both Harry and Grosvenor prepared a mud bath for the centre's two biggest rhinos.
"He cares as much about these rhinos just as we all do," Anna Ryan, a University of Richmond student who is volunteering at the centre, said of Harry's visit. "It was just incredible."
Martin Bornman of Care for Wild Africa says that Harry is "working actively with the anti-poaching units inside the Park. That is why he has got the beard and everything. He had literally just come out of the bush."
