You might not know it from the way they're portrayed in fiction, but farm cows and bulls are the same species, just different sexes. How about only female mosquitoes drinking blood? Or that female lions lack manes? Or only male cardinals are red? Or that it's male peafowl, not females, which are vividly colored and have trains? Animal Gender Bender is when all members of an animal species are shown to have a well-known attribute of that species, but in Real Life, only the male or female normally has it. So you end up with male cows, male blood-drinking mosquitoes, female lions with manes, red female cardinals, black-and-white female ostriches, and female peacocks, as well as male goats with udders, male bees with stingers, female moose with antlers, spotless female snowy owls, male calico or tortoiseshell cats,note calico and tortoiseshell males do exist, but they either have the genetic anomaly of XXY chromosomes, which are usually sterile, or are chimeras, mosaics, or have somatic mutations, which are usually fertile; all three are extremely rare (only 1 in 3000 torties and calicos are male) and extremely valuable (though only chimera and somatic ones are valuable in terms of breeding them), female roosters, male kangaroos with pouches, female rams, adult male orangutans without cheek pads, colorful female betta fish with long fins,note female bettas can be bred to be as colorful as males, but never with the long fins that the males are known for, and so on. Prehistoric and extinct animals aren't immune either; many times you'll see a "female" Pteranodon with a long crest. Barring the theory that perhaps these characters are meant to be transgender, intersex, or otherwise an anomaly of some sort, it's best to assume that this is pure artistic license. Lions are usually safe from this trope as very few writers are ignorant to the well-known fact that lions, with their usually maned males and maneless females, are practically Inversions Of Furry Female Mane: The Species. See Insect Gender-Bender for the insect (especially eusocial insect) subtrope. Lactating Male, Peacock Girl and Egg-Laying Male are subtropes. If this is true for a Funny Animal, then some viewers may see them as being trans. Contrast Tertiary Sexual Characteristics and Bizarre Sexual Dimorphism. |

The Penguins of Madagascar: The kangaroo Joey, who clearly a male kangaroo, sports a pouch that one of the title penguins actually falls into. To be perfectly clear, the pouch is for carrying the kangaroo's young, and is only found on females. One episode features a bunch of apparently male hornets with stingers. There is also a technical example in both the series and the films it's based on. Julien, a male ringtailed lemur, is ruler over all lemurs. In real life, lemur society is a matriarchy (a society ruled by females). Julien is also shown to be gender-confused at times, among other things, and most of the other lemurs aren't especially bright either, so there's a good chance this is just some sort of mix-up. Male lemurs have extra claws on their wrists, which Julien appears to lack - probably just because of simplified cartoon anatomy, but... Well, as a result it's become common fanon to portray him as designated-female-at-birth transgender. |

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and every other adaptation of the familiar Christmas myth popularized by 'Twas the Night Before Christmas: Reindeer are the only deer species in which both sexes normally grow antlers. In fact the males shed theirs around the time the story takes place, so that means every deer pulling Santa's sleigh had to be either a cow or a bull with sticks glued to his head. Though granted, the deer are usually portrayed looking like some sort of white-tailed deer lookalike species instead of real reindeer, so maybe Call a Smeerp a "Rabbit" is in effect. Also note that the male reindeer might have been neutered, meaning they'd shed their antlers around the same time as the females (that is, after Christmas). The original special inverts it for the cows by portraying them without antlers like other species of deer. |

The Far Side: A comic depicts a male mosquito (obvious from his clothing) coming home from work and talking about how much blood he had to suck that day. Gary Larson knew this was inaccurate, but did it anyway just because. Larson apparently got a lot of mail about this particular comic. He was surprised that so many people were concerned about the male mosquito drinking blood, as opposed to the mosquitoes' wearing clothing. Another comic also has male kangaroos with pouches, apparently also for the sake of the joke. |

Kirby's Epic Yarn has a particularly egregious example of this one - one of the stages in Water Land is blocked off by a gigantic, apparently male anglerfish on the map; you get him to move by summoning a much, much smaller female anglerfish to lure him away. note On the other hand, Kirby games are rather strange in general and aren't set on Earth anyway (though Pop Star and Patch Land are fantasy counterparts to Earth), so it's not entirely out of place. Anglerfish aren't usually made of yarn either, after all. | |

Story of Seasons: Harvest Moon: Animal Parade has female ostriches with male black-and-white plumage. Adding onto that, most of the games contain chickens who lay fertilized eggs and crow like a rooster while sitting on said eggs. Averted in Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life along with Another Wonderful Life, which strives to be more realistic than other installments. All the farm animals look sex appropriate. The sounds they make are even different in the ducks' cases. Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town has an event in which a character is briefly looking for a male calico cat, only to be informed of just how rare they are compared to female ones. |

In one of the re-told fairytales on Erstwhile a woman transforms herself into a duck. The duck depicted is obviously male, judging from the colorful plumage. The fact that a woman being turned into a duck is impossible in the first place didn't stop fans from complaining that the duck was of the wrong sex. | |

The Simpsons: Discussed in "Bart vs Lisa vs The Third Grade". The teacher asks the students the old riddle/trick question "If a rooster lays an egg on a church roof, will it roll left or right?" and Lisa falls for it and tries to find the answer. Since Lisa is quite intelligent, it is more likely that she wasn't aware that roosters and chickens are the same species (a common mistake for young children), rather than being unaware that males don't lay eggs. | |

The Battle Cats: Cow Cat is referred to as male, but has an udder. This also applies to all of its variants. Tomboy Lion Cat is a variant of the male Lion Cat, but retains the mane around her head despite being female. In the game's original translation, Kang Roo was referred to as male, despite having a pouch with a joey. A later update fixed this: Kang Roo's gender is not specified in its description, and all of its variants that do specify are female. Henry is an anglerfish with a lure and giant jaws, but is male. In real life, only female anglerfish have the look we associate with anglerfish — the males are tiny and helpless by comparison. |

Back at the Barnyard - see the Barnyard entry above. Exaggerated in the spin-off TV series where the male cattle not only have udders, but can produce milk as well! The whole debacle was the center of a Robot Chicken sketch titled "Bulls Don't Cry", where Otis admits that he's actually female. |

Looney Tunes: Averted with the mosquito, Anopheles Annie in the Private Snafu cartoon “It's Murder She Says.� Annie and the other blood-sucking mosquitoes are all female. The male ostrich chick in the cartoon "Mother was a Rooster" is brown like real life female ostriches. Justified because, although adult male ostriches are black, male ostrich chicks are brown like adult and chick female ostriches. Hippity Hopper averts this. He is a male kangaroo joey who doesn't have a pouch. Daffy Duck has an orange bill, which is far more the trait of female ducks than drakes like Daffy. Drakes in real life have yellow or light yellow bills whereas real life female ducks have yellow orange or orange bills with or without dark mottling. "Golden Yeggs" had the mobster Rocky force Daffy Duck to lay golden eggs after hearing about his fame, despite the fact Daffy is obviously a male duck. What's even more jarring is that the goose who actually did lay the golden egg and pinned it on Daffy is a male goose, or gander, himself. In "Ant Pasted," the ants are led by a male, as opposed to a queen ant. |

The 2009 remake of Shima Shima Tora no Shimajirō, a Japanese educational show about a little tiger boy, averts this. In the toilet training episode, a kangaroo superhero◊ shows up to help teach ShimajirÅ� learn to use the toilet, and brings his son along with him; because he's specifically a male kangaroo, he has to wear a separate pouch so he can carry the joey while leaving his hands free. | |

Teen Titans Go!: Exaggerated in "Justice League's Next Top Talent Idol Star" where Beast Boy not only turns into a cow for the talent contest, but can squirt milk out of his udder. Also exaggerated in an episode where he not only turns into a hen, but lays a fertile egg, to his immense surprise, in an apparent metaphor for being a responsible parent from an unexpected pregnancy. He's laid eggs as a hen before, but they were filled with random objects instead of a chick. In "Pie Bros", Beast Boy turns into a kangaroo to check his pouch for money. |

The original My Little Pony series has Kingsley. Kingsley is a lion complete with mane and and a very masculine name, so you'd expect a boy. However, the story on the back of the toy's packaging refers to Kingsley as "she" and "her". It's odd since the same series was typically rather accurate back then. Lionesses with hirsutism have manes; however, it's unlikely Hasbro was going for that. | |

Borderlands 2: Handsome Jack claims to have a living horse made out of diamonds, who he named Butt Stallion. Despite the name, Butt Stallion is a mare, and shows up as the queen at the end of "Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep". A statue of her shows up in both Tales from the Borderlands and the Commander Lillith DLC, still referred to as female. And then it turns out that's not just a statue. Of course, Butt Stallion only being the name and, y'know, being made of diamond, most bets are off as to whether this was a mistake or not. | |

The Princess and the Frog has Naveen and Tiana turned into frogs. Naveen is larger and rather dull in colour whereas Tiana is smaller, cuter and more brightly coloured. Unless they're supposed to be bullfrogs or something of the like, Tiana should have been the big one. | |

Classic Disney Shorts Daisy Duck has curved tail feathers, a trait exclusive only to male ducks. Donald Duck has a voice that sounds like a duck's quack, however, the classic "quack" most associated with ducks is specifically the call of the female mallard, male ducks are quieter and raspier. Spike, despite being a male bee, has a stinger. |

In Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny, Jade Tusk and her followers are all female water deer who, as her name suggests, have prominent tusks. While both sexes of water deer do have tusks, they only reach this size on the males, with the does being closer to Cute Little Fangs. | |

Creature Comforts: The male anglerfish is actually a female one with a decidedly male voice. Male anglerfish are incredibly small. Another episode had a black ostrich with a female voice. It gets odd in that a female ostrich with proper gray feathers appears in the same scene. |

Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper: Erika's cat, Wolfie-who behaves more like a dog-is described as a calico, but he's male; in real life, calico cats are almost exclusively females, and in the rare cases that males are born, a genetic disorder stops them from breeding. | |

Rocko's Modern Life: The characters makes a point to correct anyone who calls Heffer a cow. He's a steer. The titular character averts this. He's a male wallaby (a type of small kangaroo) and clearly lacks a pouch. Averted in one episode where a mosquito feasting on Filbert the turtle's blood (which passes the disease onto Bev Bighead after she eats the sickened insect) has a bow on its head, implying that it's female. However, played straight in the episode "An Elk for Heffer", which features a female elk, with antlers. Played straight in "The Fatlands," where Bloaty and Squirmy run afoul of a gang of three male mosquitoes called the Blood Brothers. |

Examples in ARK: Survival Evolved, possibly handwaved as most of the animals are explicitly different species from their source material and probably artificially modified: Male anglerfish are identical to the females. In real life, male anglerfish are smaller, slimmer, and lack the lure (they live on scraps from the female's kills). Female Pteranodon are identical to the males; current research suggests they were smaller and didn't have the head crest. Male Procoptodon (kangaroos) have a pouch and can foster baby animals in it. |

Captain Marvel (2019)'s Goose the cat is a female orange tabby. Orange tabbies are usually male (~80% chance) in Real Lifenote (Cat coloration is decided on the X chromosomes, so to be only orange, a female cat needs orange genes on both X chromosomes. This is also why calicos are almost always female, as the mixed coloration needs two different sets of color genes.) and so, unsurprisingly, the main cat used for filming was actually male. Then again, Goose isn't actually a cat. | |

The Animals of Farthing Wood: Kestrel had the plumage of a male kestrel (brown back, grey head) but a female voice. Averted with the two Pheasants, whose sexual dimorphism is accurate to reality (males are far more colourful with longer tails), and the personalities match their looks - the male Pheasant is very loud, brash and self-centred, while the female is very quiet and meek (one might even say hen-pecked...) |

Lana from the comics/animated show Animal Crackers was a lioness. With a mane. As mentioned elsewhere on this page, this is possible if the lioness has hirsutism, but it's about as normal as a human woman with a beard. Although Lana's mane looks less like a lion's and more like a human woman's. | |

Hedwig, Harry Potter's pet snowy owl, is supposed to be female, but for some reason she is depicted as all white, a trait exclusive to male snowy owls, and is played by a male too. Real female snowy owls have more dark spots. There are also numerous scenes in the films of Hedwig being talkative, a trait more common to males. (Male owls are also significantly smaller than females and therefore easier to handle in real life.) | |

Abused quite a bit in Hero108. For example, in Peacock Castle the team face off against a mesmerizing yet vain peacock queen. She and all her entourage are presented with the spectacular plumage of the male, but are all depicted as females; only males have colorful tails, in order to attract mates. In addition, Sheep Castle's leader has horns but is presented as female. (Depending on the breed, this is possible, but highly unusual.) | |

Jurassic Park III features a group of Pteranodons, all of which have the long crest characteristic of males, though some of which must be female, given that they had bred (though that's small potatoes compared to the fact that they have teeth). This is potentially justified by the fact that they aren't actually natural animals, being genetically engineered frankensteins like everything else in the park. Jurassic World averts this with the Pteranodons, which have stubby crests appropriate for females. | |

Phineas and Ferb: Perhaps parodied in that it occasionally brings up the idea that Perry the Platypus could lay an egg. Nobody ever seems to realize that he's a male platypus. And when Perry and Candace switch bodies in "Does This Duckbill Make Me Look Fat?", Candace somehow can sweat milk, something that female platypi do. Since Perry is said to be male, either their genders somehow switched when their minds switched or the Flynn-Fletchers need to change veterinarians. However, that second theory does raise the question of why Perry would go along with the misunderstanding with his boss and his nemesis. And a later episode ("Primal Perry") mentions that Perry hasnote well, should have at least venomous ankle barbs, something only males have. He shrugs when asked if this is true, seemingly confused. In one episode, Doofenshmirtz turns into a werecow. |

As for the series' own gender differences: in the PokéPark Wii games, Garchomp is male, but uses a female Garchomp's model (no notch in the dorsal fin), which is also used in most other art and merchandise. This lends credence to the theory that male Garchomp get their fin notches from fighting/scarring, and aren't born with it. | |

The 1998 film Dr. Dolittle: A deer with antlers (and therefore male) speaks with a female voice. A female voice is coming out of a male pigeon. Female pigeons are not as colorful as their male counterparts. The swarm of bees all sound male when they would, in fact, be female. |

The Land Before Time: Averted with Petrie's mother, who is a female Pteranodon with a short crest and his uncle is a male Pteranodon with a large crest. This is a case of Shown Their Work, as real life Pteranodons are believed to have had this exact form of sexual dimorphism. For bonus points, Mama Flyer is actually smaller than her brother overall, again an accurate portrayal of Pteranodon dimorphism. The fourteenth movie, however, plays this straight with Etta, a female Pteranodon who is both tall and long-crested like a male. |

The Jungle Book (1967): The elephant herd is led by a male (bull). In real life, bulls are solitary, and only enter a herd to mate, then leave once they've done their business. Averted in the book, in which there isn't a herd in the first place (although Hathi's sons hang around occasionally). This was also lampshaded toward the end, when Colonel Hathi is deciding whether or not he will help Baloo and Bagheera rescue Mowgli from Shere Khan. When Hathi refuses, his wife Winifred threatens him that if he does not help find Mowgli, then she will kick him out and take over the herd. Hathi's response: King Louie is drawn without flanges or floppy cheekpads, making him look more like a female orangutan. |

Averted and played straight in Pokémon, depending on the species: The kangaroo-like Kangaskhan all have pouches, but are also an all-female species, averting this. However, every Kangaskhan is also inexplicably born with a joey in her pouch. Averted with Miltank, a cow Pokemon, which is always female, and Tauros, a bull Pokemon, which is always male. Despite looking like they should be related, breeding-wise they are not related, unlike the Nidoran family and Volbeat/Illumise. Played straight with Sawsbuck and Stantler, deer Pokémon where males and females both have antlers year-round. Downplayed with Pyroar, a fire lion: the males have manes resembling real-life male lions, while the female does have a mane as well, though it takes the form of a long fiery wisp atop her head and her neck is appropriately bare like an actual lioness. Played straight with Luxray the electric lion: the female has a slightly shorter mane than the male but is otherwise fully maned. As for the series' own gender differences: in the PokéPark Wii games, Garchomp is male, but uses a female Garchomp's model (no notch in the dorsal fin), which is also used in most other art and merchandise. This lends credence to the theory that male Garchomp get their fin notches from fighting/scarring, and aren't born with it. As many instances of sexual dimorphism in Pokémon species were added via retcon in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, older anime episodes retroactively gained in-universe examples of this, containing things such as female Pikachu without notches at the ends of their tails, and female Butterfree without black spots on their lower wings. Another in-universe example is Serena's Eevee, who has the male Eevee tail pattern, but is presented as female. This was before Eevee's dimorphic traits were added in the Let's Go! games. |

Luckily the writers did the research and learned there are rare occasions where female narwhals do indeed have tusks and they changed an earlier line introducing her to read "a RARE toothed female narwhal" Averted with Dr. Banjo, who is a male orangutan with flanges. |

In Splatoon 2, the violinist of Bottom Feeders◊ (Fin Bottom, the black and red one in the center) looks pretty female, but is supposed to based on a Betta fish — and only the males of the species look so flamboyant. Because so little beyond appearance and musical style (Celtic punk) is known about them, some parts of the fandom have rolled with it outright being Dude Looks Like a Lady. However, others have pointed out some species of betta have brightly colored females, with even more flamboyant, iridescent males. | |

Invoked in DougDoug A.I. Invasion's Zoo Invasion, where the Cult of Chotters got a giant female gorilla on their side, prompting Doug to pull up an image of a gorilla to represent it. Chat then starts complaining that he got a picture of a male gorilla, and that female gorillas lack sagittal crests. While the initial message that brought up the discrepancy appeared genuine, Chat, being what it is, blew it out of proportion, spending a lot of time during the invasion talking about sexual dimorphism and sagittal crests. Doug, on the other hand, didn't fix it because he didn't want to put the effort in and couldn't tell the difference. | |

The elephant herd in The Jungle Book (2016) shows all the adults brandishing tusks of varying lengths. In elephant society, females form herds and take care of the calves, while adult bulls live alone or in bachelor groups, and play no part in raising the calves. But in the Asian elephant, only the males have tusks, while females are usually tuskless; sometimes small tusks (called tushes) may grow, but these are very small and usually only visible when the mouth is open. Which means that the elephants in the movie are all bulls, accompanied by a calf that is probably still too young to be weaned—a very odd combination. Alternatively, the elephants are a mixed-sex herd, with the short-tusked ones being females. Upon closer inspection, the elephants appear to be modeled off of African Elephants, which do have females with tusks, but this also raises the question of why an African species is present in a Western Asian setting—especially since every other animal (except King Louie) in the movie is from India. | |

Mostly averted by the villagers in Animal Crossing, but there are a few who are questionable: Carrie has the colorings of a typical male red kangaroo, not a female. Female red kangaroos can be red but it's more common for them to be blueish-grey. Julia is an ostrich villager with plumage resembling a peacock, but is female. Likewise Punchy is a male cat with calico markings (male calico cats do exist in real life, but they are extremely rare). The female sheep villagers are depicted with horns. While female sheep of some breeds can have horns, it's more common for them to not have them. |

All Hail King Julien also gives us several lemur characters that are recognizably a specific species of lemur, but are the wrong gender. Most prominently is Julien's bodyguard Clover, who resembles a crowned lemur, but a male one; female crowned lemurs aren't nearly as brightly colored. In addition, the series also reveals that before Julien, his uncle was the king. | |

The elephant herd is led by a male (bull). In real life, bulls are solitary, and only enter a herd to mate, then leave once they've done their business. Averted in the book, in which there isn't a herd in the first place (although Hathi's sons hang around occasionally). This was also lampshaded toward the end, when Colonel Hathi is deciding whether or not he will help Baloo and Bagheera rescue Mowgli from Shere Khan. When Hathi refuses, his wife Winifred threatens him that if he does not help find Mowgli, then she will kick him out and take over the herd. Hathi's response: | |

Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron has a example regarding behavior rather than something physically wrong. Spirit is shown running in front of the herd multiple times, something mares do.

Barnyard is probably one of the most notorious examples, as it features male cattle with udders. Director Steve Oedekerk admits the reason he put udders on the steers is because he thought "It'd be funny to give them the incorrect anatomy" and he had figured that city folk thought that all cows would look like this. Muddying things even further is there's a scene with a bull — no, not a male cow, an actual bull — riding a mechanical man. Perhaps bulls and cows are separate species in this universe. | |

There is also a technical example in both the series and the films it's based on. Julien, a male ringtailed lemur, is ruler over all lemurs. In real life, lemur society is a matriarchy (a society ruled by females). Julien is also shown to be gender-confused at times, among other things, and most of the other lemurs aren't especially bright either, so there's a good chance this is just some sort of mix-up. Male lemurs have extra claws on their wrists, which Julien appears to lack - probably just because of simplified cartoon anatomy, but... Well, as a result it's become common fanon to portray him as designated-female-at-birth transgender. | |

Arknights: Some female operators are very obviously based on male specimens of their Animal Motifs. Conviction is very obviously based on a peacock, complete with colorful trains and blue feathers. Female peafowl, or peahens, are much less colorful and don't have tail trains. Coupled with Conviction's Ambiguous Gender in the provided bio, fans have theorized that the operator is a Dude Looks Like a Lady. Siege's impressively poofy hair takes cues from the mane of a male lion. It's worth noting that while lionesses usually don't have manes, there have been instances of a few that do, however these are very rare, and their manes are much smaller and less prominent than a male's natural one. Basically the case for all female Forte operators (e.g. Sideroca, Vulcan, etc...), who have big and prominent horns characteristic of bulls. Female bovids, or cows, have much smaller and shorter horns. |

T.O.T.S.: A season 2 episode, "Junior Junior Fliers", features Matilda, who is a female baby moose with antlers. In real life, only the male moose have antlers. Averted with Didi the female baby deer from "Hiccup Hazard" who does not have antlers unlike Matilda. However, this trope was also played straight at the end of "The Magical Baby" where both of Nathan's parents, including his mom, have tusks. However, as stated on the Futurama entry above, female narwhals can have tusks, albeit rarely. |

In Grimm Fairy Tales #54, Sela saves a pair of mallard ducks from The Horde, one of which is badly injured. Her companion explains that "they mate for life" and that the male would never leave the female. Both ducks have a green head specific to males. In mallards, the females are brown with some colorful strips, but only male ducks have the iconic green head. Plus, even if they got that right, mallards don't mate for life. Quite the contrary, as a matter of fact. | |

The Lion Guard: The show has Janja, a male hyena in a leadership position of a group. As noted elsewhere on this page, real life spotted hyenas are led by females and males have very low ranking. Somewhat justified, considering there are no female hyenas in the aforementioned group - he could have simply been made leader by default due to a lack of other options. The female ostriches are black like males. Females are a dull brown in real life. The female gazelles are portrayed with long horns like the males. Female gazelles in real life have short horns. Zig-zagged with the local elephant herd, which is led by a female. On the other hand, that herd also includes adult males. |
