A pseudo-penis is any structure found on an animal that, while superficially appearing to be a penis, is derived from a different developmental path. == Mammals == In mammals, all intact developmentally typical males have a penis, but the clitoris in the females of the following species is sufficiently enlarged that it is usually termed a pseudo-penis: spotted hyena, juvenile fossa, elephants, binturong, lemur and spider monkey.
