The rakish royal, 19, landed in Sydney on his way to a three-month stint as a jackeroo--a ranch hand who wrangles sheep and cattle in the Australian outback--during his gap year between high school and college. Stopping at the Taronga Park Zoo for a photo op with local wildlife, Harry struggled to get a safe grip on this echidna. Also bristling were some Australian politicians, who complained about the $400,000 it costs to guard his highness. Of course the boost in tourism dollars from schoolgirls...
