Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Senegal Mabuya sighting in Serrekunda on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Senegal Mabuya in Serrekunda on a given day, against under 5% in March–April and September–October, the lowest months. That is one of Serrekunda's driest months, with almost no rain against 290 mm in August. July and August have too few records to rate.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Senegal Mabuya sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Senegal Mabuya sightings, Serrekunda ranks 3rd at about 20%. The best odds are in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire, about 40%) and Lagos (Nigeria, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Senegal Mabuya is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Serrekunda (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.
