(Note: you can insert any animal here instead of a pet jaguar, you can also think of a more reasonable sentence, like " There's a new jaguar in our local zoo .") B: What sex is it? A: It's &lt;what?&gt; What is person A going to say? It's HE/SHE ? Just HE/SHE ? (It's) male / female ? Something else? What if it is an animal that does have separate terms for the two sexes? (tiger, dog...). Thank you in advance.
