With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Audubon's Multicolored Lizard sighting in Caracas on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 6th most-seen of the 9 reptiles we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January, April–July and October

Between 8 and 11 pm

Only Caracas, in our data
Caracas is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Audubon's Multicolored Lizard sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Audubon's Multicolored Lizard is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Caracas (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.
