I don't usually engage in this sort of thing here, but I have always enjoyed knowing the names of groups of animals.
For example, a herd of deer. Boring.
A few fun ones.
An ambush of tigers.
A murder of crows.
A crash of rhinos.
A clowder of cats.
A paddling of ducks.
An implausibility of gnus.
An exaltation of larks.
Add some if you like. No cheating with the internet.
A gaggle of geese
Pod of Whales
A city of free shit armies
What about a gaggle of geese?
Shoot. Too slow.
I like the plurals or animals.
One mouse, two mice.
One goose, two geese.
One moose, two Mooses?
One ute, two utes.

A group of cars can also be called a "Glaring of cats".
Gathering of Mexicans: Inmate reunion?
^ I'm Mexican, so I can have fun with it.
One that applies to groups of 2 or more eg "my father in law brought his friend over and we had a clusterfuck of libtards in the house." :)Quote:

A group of flamingos is a flamboyance.... Fabulous!!!
A group of penguins is a rookery.
A group of owls is a parliament.
A peck of clams is about 16lbs worth.
Whole messa'em here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_animal_names
So answer me this, what is the word for "Word for group of animals"? What are these words classified as?
For example the word for the name of residents of a city, state, country, geographical area, etc is a Demonym.
Yes I know they're "Collective Nouns" but is there a specific term for "Collective Nouns used to describe groups of animals"?
A group of hefty drunks chicks at 1:59am is called easypickens...
VENEREAL TERMS or Terms of Venery is the phrase for a "collection of things"Quote:
