swipe through species

[bjornhjelle]

When you view a species, other species in the collection are listed below. Can we also swipe (right and left) to show the next and previous species?

Interesting concept. It's not used often, but the Google News & Weather app uses it for the headline articles. It seems all examples I can find, pre-load all the swipe-able pages at once, which might be a problem when browsing the larger taxonomy groups.

Will definitely look into it.

Very simple proof of concept: http://jsfiddle.net/Gajotres/JB22E/3/.

Or maybe use swipe to change between several pictures for the species?
And use a link to change to the next species?
