In the Predator movies, did makers mention anything about female Predators?
The Predator movie franchise, the Predator (1987), Predator 2 (1990), Predators (2010) and also upcoming movie The Predator (2018).
In the previous Predator movies, we can see Predators hunt human's & animals. In these movies, all the Predators are males.
My question is, in these Predator movies, did the makers mention anything about female Predators? Even if they exist, are they hunting like male Predators?
Best Answer
In films there is no mention of Female Predators (Yautja), but in extended canon there are female predators:
From wikia:
Reproduction:
The subject of Yautja reproduction is not touched upon in the slightest within the films, there are many members of the species seen but none blatantly female by human standards.
Alien vs. Predator: Prey: Female predators are apparently not hunters, but are still none-the-less equals in Yautja society and mentality. "Lou-dte kalei" was a derogatory term that was sometimes used to refer to females, it literally meant "child-maker." The warrior Dachande had never heard the name spoken to a female's face.
Aliens vs Predator: Deadliest of the Species: A Female Predator (Called Big Mama) was seen in the comic and Shows only a little distinction from males. She does not appear to have any sort of noticeable mammary glands in the comic, but the covers show this differently. She was extremely protective and caring of her progeny and a powerful warrior.
From Wikipedia link for Aliens vs Predator: Deadliest of the Species:
Claremont remarked that the editor of the series gave him far more creative freedom than he was accustomed to: "So long as I don't violate the basic parameters of the Alien/Predator universe - there's a limit to what we can establish about them, and I'm stretching that by establishing a female Predator - I can do pretty much what I want. I can write the kind of characters I want, and that's a freedom I haven't had in a long time, especially as regarding the X-Men."

During the mating season the males try to mate with as many females as they can. The high ranking males will attract enough females just because of their status. The males that are lower in rank will have to fight for their females. This behavior is probably millions of years old.Did Predators mate with humans?

Answer 2
In the existing movies, there are no references to the female Predators, although they are speculated to be in the upcoming The Predator movie. However, there are a few notable Female Yautja (that are actually named characters) in the books and graphic novels:
Big Mama - From the comic AvP: Deadliest of the Species. A big Predator with no female features (breasts) and no special armor/costume. She is actually quite badass and survives the hunt.
Sister Midnight - from the Witchblade/Aliens/Darkness/Predator: Mindhunter crossover comic. Looks feminine, has breasts and has a dress like costume. Has a special relationship with Witchblade, fights some Aliens, detonates her self-destruct and dies.
Vagouti - From the Predator: If It Bleeds novel story Rematch (the story is a sequel to the book Predator: Turnabout). There is not much physical description on her but she is hunting together with her mate. They are both killed by humans.
There is also Machiko Noguchi, who is a human female who joined the Predators (she is often mistaken for a female Predator). There is more information and pictures about them here: Female Yautja
