Prince William has given his first public speech since the death of the Queen and as heir to the British throne
Speaking at a wildlife protection summit in London, William called for more action to combat the illegal trade in wildlife products.
He says the illegal trade is worth an estimated $20 billion annually, and he urged businesses and law enforcement agencies to do more to stop it.
The speech signals the royal family will continue to champion environmental causes, as King Charles III is forced to step back from public activism.
The Prince and his Royal Foundation have long made protecting wildlife a key focus of their work, and they are likely to continue this work in the years to come.
Meanwhile, William also used the opportunity to pay tribute to his late Granny.
