Likely
About 40% of wildlife watchers report a Lowe's Monkey sighting in Abidjan on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
November
In that month about 60% of wildlife watchers report a Lowe's Monkey in Abidjan on a given day, against about 10% in January, March–April, August and October, the lowest months. February and May have too few records to rate.
Only Abidjan, in our data
Abidjan is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Lowe's Monkey sightings: about 40% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Lowe's Monkey is recorded against all the mammals logged in Abidjan (6 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
