Celebrating wildlife in pictures
by Eric Hilaire as told to Sophie Zeldin-O'Neill from on (#310R4)
Guardian picture editor Eric Hilaire explains the success behind one of our most-loved galleries - the week in wildlife
Every week the Guardian's environment desk publishes the week in wildlife on theguardian.com. This picture gallery, featuring the best flora and fauna shots from around the world, has a loyal readership, garnering tens of thousands of views every week. Here, we chat to Eric Hilaire, the Guardian picture editor who has compiled the gallery since it launched eight years ago.
