With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Fenoulhet's Toad sighting in Kruger National Park on a given day, based on 26 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 13th most-seen of the 28 amphibians 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.
June and November–April
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Fenoulhet's Toad in Kruger National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May and July–October, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Fenoulhet's Toad 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 Kruger National Park, in our data
Kruger National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Fenoulhet's Toad sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Bufonidae
The closest relatives of the Fenoulhet's Toad that you can see in Kruger National Park (family Bufonidae, True Toads) are Garman's Toad (about 20%), Eastern Flat-backed Toad (about 10%) and African Split-skin Toad (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Fenoulhet's Toad is recorded against all the amphibians logged in Kruger National Park (26 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.
