Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Savanna Pathfinder sighting in Kibale National Park on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 14th most-seen of the 41 insects 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.
April and October
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Savanna Pathfinder in Kibale National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May–June, September and November–December, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Savanna Pathfinder sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Kibale National Park, in our data

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Savanna Pathfinder is recorded against all the insects logged in Kibale National 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.
