With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pygmy Wolf Snake sighting in iSimangaliso Wetland Park on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 31st most-seen of the 43 reptiles we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February, July and October–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pygmy Wolf Snake in iSimangaliso Wetland Park on a given day, against under 5% in March–June, August–September and December–January, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Pygmy Wolf Snake 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 iSimangaliso Wetland Park, in our data
iSimangaliso Wetland Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Pygmy Wolf Snake sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pygmy Wolf Snake is recorded against all the reptiles logged in iSimangaliso Wetland 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.
