The couple is on a week-long tour of India and Bhutan. Kate [explained](http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-36034876 "undefined") her children’s absence to one villager she spoke with by saying that George was “too naughty” and would be running all over the place if he’d come along. She said watching the children of the village dance made her miss her kids back in England. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4292085/prince-william-kate-middleton-rhinos-elephants-india/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4292085/prince-william-kate-middleton-rhinos-elephants-india/"},"headline":"Prince William and Kate Middleton Feed Baby Rhinos and Elephants in India","datePublished":"2016-04-13T14:44:13.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T16:42:01.674Z","description":"The pair paid a visit to Kaziranga National Park","url":"https://time.com/4292085/prince-william-kate-middleton-rhinos-elephants-india/","keywords":["India"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt27fa8aee780fbe68/69888eec8e06011bb34656a1/prince-william-kate-middleton-india-trip-elephant-feeding.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Sarah Begley","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/sarah-begley/"}],"articleSection":"World","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt27fa8aee780fbe68/69888eec8e06011bb34656a1/prince-william-kate-middleton-india-trip-elephant-feeding.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The Duke and Duchess Of Cambridge Visit India and Bhutan - Day 4","caption":"Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge visit the Centre for Wildlife Rehabilitation and Conservation at Kaziranga National Park in Guwahati, India on April 13, 2016.","creditText":"UK Press Pool/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/world/","name":"World"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4292085/prince-william-kate-middleton-rhinos-elephants-india/","name":"Prince William and Kate Middleton Feed Baby Rhinos and Elephants in India"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"Will and Kate Visit India","description":"Prince William and Kate Middleton spent four days vacationing in India, marking their first official visit to the country as a couple.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/gXECGWjm/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2016-04-14T20:02:33.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/gXECGWjm.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4292085/prince-william-kate-middleton-rhinos-elephants-india/","duration":"PT1M7S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4292085/prince-william-kate-middleton-rhinos-elephants-india/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
