Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Spotted Keelback sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 49th most-seen of the 64 reptiles 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 Spotted Keelback in Singapore on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Spotted Keelback sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Spotted Keelback sightings, Singapore ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Kuching (Malaysia, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spotted Keelback is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Singapore (19 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.
