Likely
About 50% of wildlife watchers report a Honduran Emerald Spiny Lizard sighting in La Tigra National Park on a given day, based on 25 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. Over three days the chance rises to about 90%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 70% of wildlife watchers report a Honduran Emerald Spiny Lizard in La Tigra National Park on a given day, against about 10% in January, the lowest month. That is one of La Tigra National Park's driest months, with about 70 mm of rain against 260 mm in June.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Honduran Emerald Spiny Lizard sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only La Tigra National Park, in our data
La Tigra National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Honduran Emerald Spiny Lizard sightings: about 50% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Honduran Emerald Spiny Lizard is recorded against all the reptiles logged in La Tigra National 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.
