Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a The Feline sighting in Prague on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 543rd most-seen of the 724 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a The Feline in Prague on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months. That is one of Prague's wettest months, with about 80 mm of rain against 30 mm in February.
Between 10 pm and 1 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most The Feline sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Among the best
Of the 4 cities where we can rate The Feline sightings, Prague ranks 4th at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Vienna (Austria, under 5%), Kyiv (Ukraine, under 5%) and Berlin (Germany, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the The Feline is recorded against all the insects logged in Prague (7 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.
