Likely
About 60% of wildlife watchers report a Whitish Dwarf Squirrel sighting in Tangkoko Nature Reserve on a given day, based on 61 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 4th most-seen of the 7 mammals we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 90%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August and November
In those months about 80% of wildlife watchers report a Whitish Dwarf Squirrel in Tangkoko Nature Reserve on a given day, against about 50% in February, April–May, July and September–October, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Whitish Dwarf Squirrel 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 Tangkoko Nature Reserve, in our data
Tangkoko Nature Reserve is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Whitish Dwarf Squirrel sightings: about 60% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Whitish Dwarf Squirrel is recorded against all the mammals logged in Tangkoko Nature Reserve (61 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.
