A very interesting website called LifeGate
iNaturalists of Botswana and southern Africa
Please take a look at this website and consider its usefulness and value.
I find it to be very interesting,

Could there be mutual collaboration between iNaturalists/iNaturalist and the creators of this great site ?
Or is collaboration happening already ?
Could/should there be links between the two sites ?
I have asked these questions on the iNat Forum page.

I hope LifeGate shall be able to use the photos I have uploaded from Botswana on iNaturalist to illustrate their site,

It is cute, but a gimmick!
What would you use it for?
@tonyrebelo very true but a pretty visualisation !
But could LifeGate have links to inat pages about taxa in return for using iNat pictures ?
Have you seen these:

Thanks I shall have a very good look. I suppose the use of Lifegate is that is shows relative sizes of orders, families and genera, visually.
They are all focused on some aspect and deficient in others.
Woow nice websites from
