With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Suriname Grasshopper sighting in Manu National Park on a given day, based on 21 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 70th most-seen of the 366 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January and September
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Suriname Grasshopper in Manu National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April–May and December, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Suriname Grasshopper sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
5th of 5

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Suriname Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Manu National Park (21 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.
