--Can You Name These Animal Groups?
Many kinds of animals tend to live in groups.We know fish have schools, wolves have packs andcattle has herds, but English is such a rich language that mostanimal groups have their own, unique name.Here are the best 37 examples I found:A group of woodpeckers is called a DescentA group of kangaroos is a Mob or a TroopWhen flamingos group together, they're called a FlamboyanceWhen it comes to cats, a group has many names, like:Clowder, Clutter, Pounce, Dout, Nuisance, Glare, and my favorite - a GloryingHamsters become a HordeZebras group into a Zeal or a DazzleBunch bears together and you get a SleuthThese prairie dogs are a CoterieVultures form a Venue (but if they're circling, they're a Kettle)Badgers, bunched together are a CompanyWombats become a WisdomFinches in a group are a CharmThese eagles are a ConvocationLarks are Exaltation or AscensionEveryone knows about a Murder of crowsSharks swim in ShiversChicks flock in PeepsMice are a MischiefThese frogs are an ArmyWild gnus - an ImplausibilitySeals are a Pod, a Harem or BobElephants come in a MemoryFoxes together, are a Leash, Skulk, or TroopA group of porcupines makes for a PrickleOwls are a ParliamentDucks on the ground are a Brace or a Badling, in the water they're a Raft,a Team, or a PaddlingA group of doves is called a PiteousnessThese otters, together, are called Bevy or RompA group of young penguins is known as a CrècheWhen apes are together, they're called a ShrewdnessA hippo herd is known as a BloatA swam of butterflies is called a FlutterBring baboons together and you get a Congress (which explains a-lot)Cheetahs form CoalitionsWhen it comes to ravens, you can choose between Unkindness and StorytellingAnd last but not least, remember that a group of pugs are a Grumble!
