With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Red-webbed Treefrog sighting in Kaeng Krachan National Park on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 15th most-seen of the 21 amphibians we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and August
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Red-webbed Treefrog in Kaeng Krachan National Park on a given day, against under 5% in September and December–February, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Red-webbed Treefrog sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Kaeng Krachan National Park, in our data
Kaeng Krachan National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Red-webbed Treefrog sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Red-webbed Treefrog is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Kaeng Krachan National Park (13 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.
