  2. Bonobo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonobo

    Formerly the bonobo was known as the "pygmy chimpanzee", despite the bonobo having a similar body size to the common chimpanzee. The name "pygmy" was given by the German zoologist Ernst Schwarz in 1929, who classified the species on the basis of a previously mislabeled bonobo cranium, noting its diminutive size compared to chimpanzee skulls.

  3. Pan (genus) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_(genus)

    Bonobo (video) Female chimpanzee at Tobu Zoo in Saitama, Japan. Anatomical differences between the common chimpanzee and the bonobo are slight. Both are omnivorous adapted to a mainly frugivorous diet. [49] [50] Yet sexual and social behaviours are markedly different.

  4. Sexual dimorphism in non-human primates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_dimorphism_in_non...

    Extant primates exhibit a broad range of variation in sexual size dimorphism (SSD), or sexual divergence in body size. [4] It ranges from species such as gibbons and strepsirrhines (including Madagascar's lemurs) in which males and females have almost the same body sizes to species such as chimpanzees and bonobos in which males' body sizes are larger than females' body sizes.

  5. Chimpanzee - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimpanzee

    The bonobo was recognised as distinct from the chimpanzee by 1933. [11] [12] [14] ... Female chimpanzees are estimated to hunt ≈ 10-15% of a community's vertebrates.

  6. Animal clitoris - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_clitoris

    The clitoris (/ ˈ k l ɪ t ər ɪ s / ⓘ or / k l ɪ ˈ t ɔːr ɪ s / ⓘ; pl.: clitorises or clitorides) is a female sex organ present in mammals, ostriches and other amniotes.. Although the clitoris exists in all mammal species, [1] [2] [3] most studies deal with the human clitoris - few detailed studies of the anatomy of the clitoris in non-humans exist. [4]

  7. Western chimpanzee - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_chimpanzee

    Male and female western chimpanzees differ in their prey. In Fongoli, Senegal, Senegal bushbabies account for 75% of females' prey and 47% of the males'. While males will prey more on monkeys, such as green monkeys (27%) and Guinea baboons (18%), only males were observed to hunt patas monkeys and only females were observed to hunt banded mongooses.

  8. Sexual dimorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_dimorphism

    The female-biased sexual size dimorphism observed in many taxa evolved despite intense male-male competition for mates. [28] In Osmia rufa, for example, the female is larger/broader than males, with males being 8–10 mm in size and females being 10–12 mm in size. [29] In the hackberry emperor females are similarly larger than males. [30]

  9. Sex organ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_organ

    Sex organs are typically differentiated into male and female types. In animals (including humans), the male sex organs include the testicles, epididymides, and penis; the female sex organs include the clitoris, ovaries, oviducts, and vagina. The testicle in the male and the ovary in the female are called the primary sex organs. [1]
