The Palace wrote: “Celebrating Africa’s conservation heroes at this year’s Tusk Awards.”
William, greeted by Charlie Mayhew at the event, was all smiles and in high spirits as he handed the Tusk Wildlife Ranger Award to Daniel Yiankere, who is the security manager at Loisaba Conservancy in Laikipia, Kenya.
In another post on the couple’s Instagram Story, the future monarch is seen with the winners.
 The Tusk Award for Conservation in Africa went to Raabia Hawa, who is the founder and director of the Ulinzi Africa Foundation.
The charity helps to protect the Tana Delta-Lamu landscape, which shelters baby elephants and migratory birds. Despite threats against her own life, Raabia has played a central role in the impounding of the MC Roberto over illegal fishing allegations and helped the coastal topi recover from a population of just 33 to total around 300.
William is a patron of the charity, which aims to celebrate and support the unsung heroes of the conservation world.Â
The three award categories are the Prince William Award for Conservation in Africa, the Tusk Award for Conservation in Africa and the Tusk Wildlife Ranger Award.
