Hi everyone!
I'm really excited to share that we have finished putting together a new and much improved version of the Who Eats Whom website (https://whoeatswhom.org/). You can now type in the common name of an organism and see what it eats, and what eats it, according to the ~4,000 observations currently submitted to the project.
In order for your observation to be displayed on the website, the following must be true:
- You must submit two observations: one of the "eater" and the other of the organism being eaten
- Both observations must be IDed to research-grade
- Both observations must have the "URL for partner observation" field filled out.
For a good example of a feeding observation that follows these rules, see this recent observation by @heifer03 of a Joro Spider eating an ...more ↓
Hi everyone!
I'm really excited to share that we have finished putting together a new and much improved version of the Who Eats Whom website (https://whoeatswhom.org/). You can now type in the common name of an organism and see what it eats, and what eats it, according to the ~4,000 observations currently submitted to the project.
In order for your observation to be displayed on the website, the following must be true:
- You must submit two observations: one of the "eater" and the other of the organism being eaten
- Both observations must be IDed to research-grade
- Both observations must have the "URL for partner observation" field filled out.
For a good example of a feeding observation that follows these rules, see this recent observation by @heifer03 of a Joro Spider eating an Eastern Yellowjacket here (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/187919137) and here (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/187919136). As a result of following these rules, this neat observation is displayed on the website if you search "Who eats..."Eastern Yellowjacket" or if you search "Who is eaten by..." "Joro Spider."
Obviously, there is still a lot of work to do to improve the technical aspects of the site (e.g. the drop-down menu is pretty clunky). But the basic functionality should work and so I wanted to go ahead and share that with you. Please let me know if you have any thoughts or suggestions, and thanks so much for contributing to this project!
