With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Fowler's Snouted Tree Frog sighting in Galápagos Islands on a given day, based on 96 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and June
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Fowler's Snouted Tree Frog in Galápagos Islands on a given day, against about 10% in May and July–March, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Fowler's Snouted Tree Frog sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Galápagos Islands, in our data
Galápagos Islands is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Fowler's Snouted Tree Frog sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Fowler's Snouted Tree Frog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Galápagos Islands (96 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.
