Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Malayan Owl sighting in Sepilok on a given day, based on 25 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 12th most-seen of the 87 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.
December
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Malayan Owl in Sepilok on a given day, against under 5% in February, May and August, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Malayan Owl sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Malayan Owl sightings, Sepilok ranks 2nd at about 20%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Khao Luang National Park (Thailand, about 20%).
Same family: Nymphalidae
The closest relatives of the Malayan Owl that you can see in Sepilok (family Nymphalidae, Brush-footed Butterflies) are Clipper (about 40%), Brown Pansy (about 30%) and Great Eggfly (about 30%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Malayan Owl is recorded against all the insects logged in Sepilok (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.
