Sexual dimorphism is the condition where the two sexes of the same species exhibit different characteristics beyond the differences in their sexual organs. The condition occurs in many animals, insects, birds and some plants. Differences may include secondary sex characteristics, size, color, markings, and may also include behavioral differences. These differences may be subtle or exaggerated, and may increase over time as a result of sexual selection.
Overview
Ornamentation and coloration
Common and easily identified types of dimorphism are ornamentation and coloration. A difference in coloration of sexes within a given species is called sexual dichromatism, which is commonly seen in many species of birds and reptiles. Sexual selection leads to the exaggerated dimorphic traits that are used predominantly in competition over mates. The increased fitness resulting from ornamentation offsets its cost to produce or maintain suggesting complex evolutionary implications, but the costs and evolutionary implications vary from species to species.
Ever wondered why males and females of the same species looked different? That's sexual dimorphism!!

Multi-species Exhibit of Red-faced Spider Monkeys|黑蜘蛛猴|アカガオクロクモザル混合展示|CHIMELONG SAFARI PARK|長隆野生動物世界
Filmed in December 2024 at Chimelong Safari Park in Guangzhou, China.
Overall I felt the exhibit was excellent. It is a multi-species exhibit of red-faced spider monkeys, common squirrel monkeys, common marmosets, and golden-headed lion tamarins. There are swans in the pond. What was a bit disappointing was that a keeper showed up in a pathway holding a young red-faced spider monkey. The zoo prohibits visitors from touching the animals, but showing people a human holding a young or baby primate isn't such a wise decision to educate people on the species and the wildlife conservation. This is my personal view.
Please note the background noise was unbearable, so I replaced it with a nature sound.

Overall I felt the exhibit was excellent. It is a multi-species exhibit of red-faced spider monkeys, common squirrel monkeys, common marmosets, and golden-headed lion tamarins. There are swans in the pond. What was a bit disappointing was that a keeper showed up in a pathway holding a young red-faced spider monkey. The zoo prohibits visitors from touching the animals, but showing people a human holding a young or baby primate isn't such a wise decision to educate people on the species and the wildlife conservation. This is my personal view.
Please note the background noise was unbearable, so I replaced it with a nature sound.

Sexual dimorphism is the condition where the two sexes of the same species exhibit different characteristics beyond the differences in their sexual organs. The condition occurs in many animals, insects, birds and some plants. Differences may include secondary sex characteristics, size, color, markings, and may also include behavioral differences. These differences may be subtle or exaggerated, and may increase over time as a result of sexual selection.
Overview
Ornamentation and coloration
Common and easily identified types of dimorphism are ornamentation and coloration. A difference in coloration of sexes within a given species is called sexual dichromatism, which is commonly seen in many species of birds and reptiles. Sexual selection leads to the exaggerated dimorphic traits that are used predominantly in competition over mates. The increased fitness resulting from ornamentation offsets its cost to produce or maintain suggesting complex evolutionary implications, but the costs and evolutionary implications vary from species to species.
