William appears to have blamed rising populations, particularly in Africa, for the loss of wildlife, echoing comments he made in 2017 while his wife was expecting her third child.<\/p>\n<p>The second in line to the British throne made the remarks at the Tusk Conservation Award on Monday.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\"

challenge for conservationists, as it does the world over,\u201d the Duke of Cambridge said in comments <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetimes.co.uk\/article\/prince-william-blames-african-population-growth-for-wildlife-loss-d7rtjlp3d\">reported<\/a> by <em>The Times<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>It was only four years ago that Prince William made similar remarks to an audience of the same conservation charity, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/news\/uk-news\/prince-william-branded-hypocrite-warning-11462605\">telling guests<\/a> in November 2017: \u201cAfrica\u2019s rapidly growing human population is predicted to more than double by 2050 \u2013 a staggering increase of three and a half million people per month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no question that this increase puts wildlife and habitat under enormous pressure\u2026 On human populations alone, over-grazing and poor water supplies could have a catastrophic effect unless we start to think about how to mitigate these challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Five months later, Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, gave birth to their third child, Prince Louis.<\/p>\n<blockquote
