Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a The Feline sighting in Vienna on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 599th most-seen of the 1406 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 The Feline in Vienna on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
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.
Yes
Of the 4 cities where we can rate The Feline sightings, Vienna has the highest daily chance: under 5%. Next come 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 Vienna (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.
