Chimpanzees are sexually dimorphic, with males being slightly larger than females. Adult males have a mean length of 77 to 92.5 cm (30.3 to 36.4 in) with a weight of 42 to 49 kg (93 to 108 lb). The smaller females are typically 70 to 85 cm (28 to 33 in) in length and 35.2 to 40.6 kg (78 to 90 lb) in body weight.[1]
