Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Borneo Bow-fingered Gecko sighting in Kinabalu Park on a given day, based on 25 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 24th most-seen of the 69 reptiles we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.

In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Borneo Bow-fingered Gecko in Kinabalu Park on a given day, against under 5% in October, the lowest month.

Yes
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Borneo Bow-fingered Gecko sightings, Kinabalu Park has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Sepilok (Malaysia, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Borneo Bow-fingered Gecko is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Kinabalu Park (25 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.
