Ibn Ezra on Deuteronomy 27:21/אבן עזרא על דברים כ״ז:כ״א
אעם כל בהמה. זכר או נקבה כי אין לה פה שתצעק ותערער כמו הזכור על כן לא הזכירו:
1CURSED BE HE THAT LIETH WITH ANY MANNER OF BEAST.38 is feminine. Our verse could thus conceivably be translated, cursed be he that lieth with any manner of female beast. Hence I.E.’s comments. Male or female, for neither have a mouth with which to cry out and protest. Thus, a female animal is like a male animal;39 therefore Scripture does not mention the male.
