In place of the classic external vaginal opening, female hyenas are equipped with elongated external clitorises that deeply resemble the penises of their male counterparts. This clitoris has the size and shape of a regular male hyena penis and is known as “a pseudo-penis.” The hyena pseudo-penis is comprised of a fused urinary and reproductive tract. The female hyena has to urinate, breed, and give birth from her external clitoris.
