Page "Polyandry" Paragraph 61
from
Wikipedia
Polyandry in primates and other mammals is usually correlated with reduced or reverse sexual dimorphism — females larger than males.
As size difference decreases, or the females are larger than males, a species is more likely to practice monogamy or polyandry.
Conversely, birds of prey-which show distinct reverse sexual dimorphism — tend to be monogamous for long periods or mate for life ; some species like the Snail kite will choose new mates every year, polygyny is noted in many Harriers and polyandry has been observed in the Harris ' Hawk ( notable for being the only bird of prey to regularly live and hunt in family and social groups ) and the aforementioned Galapagos hawk.
