Likely
About 40% of wildlife watchers report a Cope's Ameiva sighting in Tayrona National Natural Park on a given day, based on 43 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 9th most-seen of the 26 reptiles we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 80%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
November
In that month about 60% of wildlife watchers report a Cope's Ameiva in Tayrona National Natural Park on a given day, against about 30% in February–April, July and October, the lowest months. That is one of Tayrona National Natural Park's wettest months, with about 140 mm of rain against 5 mm in January.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cope's Ameiva 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 Tayrona National Natural Park, in our data
Tayrona National Natural Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Cope's Ameiva sightings: about 40% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cope's Ameiva is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Tayrona National Natural Park (43 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.
