In 3 days ~40% in a week ~70%
Leptodactylus natalensis is a species of frog in the family Leptodactylidae. It is endemic to Brazil where it is found on the eastern coast. Leptodactylus natalensis is a very common species. It lives in muddy places at secondary lowland forests, shrubby vegetation, and wet cow pastures near secondary forest, but not in primary forest. Breeding takes place in temporary ponds. Scientists have observed the frog as high as 900 meters above sea level, and in many protected parks.
Male Leptodactylus natalensis grow to a snout–vent length of 29–42 mm (1.1–1.7 in) and females to 33–49 mm (1.3–1.9 in). The IUCN classifies this species as least concern of extinction. In some parts of its range, this frog may be in some danger from clear-cutting and overgrazing. Wikipedia →

Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Rio Bahu White-lipped Frog sighting in Salvador on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 5th most-seen of the 5 amphibians we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Rio Bahu White-lipped Frog in Salvador on a given day, against under 5% in May and July–March, the lowest months.
Only Salvador, in our data

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rio Bahu White-lipped Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Salvador (5 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.
