📅 Monthly Probability
Fewer than 5 records of Zanj Sun Squirrel at Tsavo East National Park — not enough to chart months honestly.

Global Distribution
Where this species is recorded worldwide. Restricted to human observations from 2019 onwards — the same kind of record and the same period the probabilities on this page are built from, so collar-tracking studies, camera-trap arrays and museum specimens are excluded. Around Santa Rosa that removes 5,924 GPS fixes from a handful of tagged jaguars.
