Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Spotted Least Gecko sighting in Tenorio Volcano National Park on a given day, based on 35 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 8th most-seen of the 38 reptiles we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and August
In those months about 50% of wildlife watchers report a Spotted Least Gecko in Tenorio Volcano National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February and September, the lowest months.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Spotted Least Gecko 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 Tenorio Volcano National Park, in our data
Tenorio Volcano National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Spotted Least Gecko sightings: about 30% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spotted Least Gecko is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Tenorio Volcano National Park (35 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.
