Yes, in many species, females are larger than males, a phenomenon known as sexual dimorphism. This is particularly common in certain groups like Spiders, where females often grow significantly larger than males, and in some species of birds and mammals, such as the anglerfish and certain deer species. The larger size in females can be advantageous for reproduction, allowing for greater egg production or better survival of offspring.
