About 80% of wildlife watchers report a Swift Rock Dragon sighting in Flinders Ranges National Park on a given day, based on 178 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the most-seen of the 19 reptiles we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February, April and September–October
In those months about 90% of wildlife watchers report a Swift Rock Dragon in Flinders Ranges National Park on a given day, against about 40% in June, the lowest month.
Between 3 and 6 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Swift Rock Dragon sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Flinders Ranges National Park, in our data
Flinders Ranges National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Swift Rock Dragon sightings: about 80% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Swift Rock Dragon is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Flinders Ranges National Park (178 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.
