With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Burmese Mountain Agamid sighting in Doi Inthanon National Park on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 15th most-seen of the 30 reptiles 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.
March and June
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Burmese Mountain Agamid in Doi Inthanon National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April and July–December, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Burmese Mountain Agamid sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Doi Inthanon National Park, in our data
Doi Inthanon National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Burmese Mountain Agamid sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Burmese Mountain Agamid is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Doi Inthanon National Park (8 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
