Physical and behavioral findings in a pseudohermaphrodite American bison

DF Lott, K Benirschke, JN McDonald, C Stormont, and T Nett


ABSTRACT

A pseudohermaphrodite American bison (Bison bison) behaved like an adult male when interacting with adult females, but like an adult female when interacting with adult males. Its chromosomes were a normal 60, XX and it had a uterus; but it had bilateral testes rather than ovaries. Skull measurements were intermediate between a bull and a cow. Gonadotrophin levels were typical of ovariectomized domestic cows or steers.
