Ben Hoare

From 2008 to 2018, I was Features Editor of BBC Wildlife Magazine and have since worked as the magazine's Editorial Consultant.

In this dream job, I got to work with my wildlife TV heroes and met everything from aardvarks to zebras. I still contribute to every issue. A small selection of my articles appear below.

Other magazines that I often contribute to include BBC Countryfile, BBC Science Focus and Science+Nature.

I also review nature books – you can read some of my reviews here and here.

And I give talks about feature writing and wildlife journalism to university students.

In 2015, I was Journalist of the Year at Our Media (then called Immediate Media), which produces BBC Wildlife and is one of the largest magazine publishers in the UK.
