Pristimantis bogotensis, also known as the Bogota robber frog, is a species of frog in the family Strabomantidae. It is endemic to Colombia where it is only known from the Cundinamarca Department including the Bogotá area, on the Cordillera Oriental.
Its natural habitats are tropical moist montane forests and high-altitude páramo grassland, but it adapts to disturbance and can also occur on pastureland, provided that some shrubs remain. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Bogota Robber Frog sighting in Bogota on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January–February, April and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Bogota Robber Frog in Bogota on a given day, against under 5% in March, May–July and September–December, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Bogota Robber Frog sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Bogota, in our data
Bogota is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Bogota Robber Frog sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Bogota Robber Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Bogota (8 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.
