Average rainfall and biodiversity

District-av rainfall-number of observations-species-observers

Descending order rainfall
Nanded - 931.3 mm
Hingoli - 904 mm
Parbhani - 898.7 mm
Latur - 849.3 mm
Osmanabad - 771.0 mm
Jalna - 721.9 mm
Aurangabad - 715.4 mm
Beed - 691.0 mm

Descending order number of observations - species - observers
Aurangabad - 2241 - 884 - 136
Latur - 391 - 155 - 32
Osmanabad - 295 - 136 - 21
Beed - 290 - 102 - 22
Nanded - 264 - 120 - 31
Jalna - 191 - 97 - 46
Parbhani - 39 - 26 - 18
Hingoli - 21 - 10 - 4

Crude inference -
Aurangabad - max av rainfall, number of observations, species-number of observers
Hingoli in spite having good amount of av rainfall has lowest number of observations, species count and number of observers.

What could be the reason?
literacy, access to internet, interest in local wildlife, tech know how of uploading observations on iNat
