Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Kanara Tiger Moth sighting in Kozhikode on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 45th most-seen of the 138 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June–July and December
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Kanara Tiger Moth in Kozhikode on a given day, against under 5% in January–April, August and October, the lowest months. Those are among Kozhikode's wettest months, with about 260 mm of rain a month against 5 mm in January.

Of the 2 cities where we can rate Kanara Tiger Moth sightings, Kozhikode has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Kochi (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Kanara Tiger Moth is recorded against all the insects logged in Kozhikode (15 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.
