Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Montezuma's Grasshopper sighting in San Antonio on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 625th most-seen of the 697 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Montezuma's Grasshopper in San Antonio on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Montezuma's Grasshopper sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Montezuma's Grasshopper sightings, San Antonio ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Monterrey (México, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Montezuma's Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in San Antonio (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.
