Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Hispaniolan hopping anole sighting in Jaragua National Park on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 9th most-seen of the 9 reptiles we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May–July and November–December
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Hispaniolan hopping anole in Jaragua National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January–February, April and August–September, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hispaniolan hopping anole 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 Jaragua National Park, in our data
Jaragua National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Hispaniolan hopping anole sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hispaniolan hopping anole is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Jaragua National Park (9 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.
