  • Sexual Segregation in Vertebrates

    Males and females often differ in developmental patterns, adult morphology, ecology and behaviour, and in many mammals males are often larger.

    While we joke that men are from Mars and women are from Venus, our gender differences can't compare to those of other animals. For instance: the male garden spider spontaneously dies after mating with a female more than fifty times his size.
