Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Shoed Grasshopper sighting in Table Mountain National Park on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 165th most-seen of the 344 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Shoed Grasshopper in Table Mountain National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May to March, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Shoed Grasshopper 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 2 parks where we can rate Shoed Grasshopper sightings, Table Mountain National Park ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Garden Route National Park (South Africa, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Shoed Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Table Mountain National Park (16 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.
