Andropadus importunus

Chance of an encounter
Very likely

Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Addo Elephant National Park, aggregated onto a 25 km grid. A cell is matched by its centre, which can sit up to 16 km outside the boundary, so this covers the surrounding country too.

Occurrence records measure where people looked and found something, which is not the same as where the animal is. This is a relative likelihood, not a probability.
