I am sure you learned what groups of animals are called in school.. but are you aware of these ? A group of crows are called murder owls: a Parliament Eagles: a convocation Fox: a charm Geese: a gaggle Parrots: a pandemonium Porcupines: a prickle Elephants: a parade Camels: a caravan These names are amusing and pretty apt.. have you heard of these before?

I love these but the best thing is that a group of baboons is called a congress. It would figure, right?

@sofssu A "herd" is generic for a group of mammals that live together, mainly used for livestock.
