A Group of ____ is Called a ____
Is this in the right place? I think it is... If it's not, sorry about that. Anyway
One fun thing to do is to look up what a group of animals is called. All you do is fill in the blanks above! Some examples of this:
A group of vultures is called a committee or venue
A group of crows is called a murder
A group of ravens is called an unkindness (lol)
A group of owls is called a parliament
A group of jaguars is called a jamboree
A group of foxes is called a skulk or leash
A group of cheetahs is called a coalition
So just look up things like this and post some funny, cool, unusual, or interesting terms for animal groups, and remember to use the terms in a real conversation! Remember to say your favorite term! I hope this becomes a fun and educational game!

Re: A Group of ____ is Called a ____
I think my favorite out of those is a group of cobras is a quiver. That's pretty funny. But my favorite of all so far is a group of ravens is called an unkindness.Crocotto wrote:Group of Rhinos is called a Crash

Hm...wells there's a group of hummingbirds, which is a charm.
A gaggle is a group of geese if they aren't flying.

Re: A Group of ____ is Called a ____
Hm....there's also a stand of flamingos.
A smack of jellyfish.
A cloud of grasshoppers.
And a bloat of hippos. xD
Many animals though don't have just one group name, from what I've seen.

- A group a bats is called a Colony or A Cloud.
- A group of Buzzards is called a Wake.
- A group of Lizards is called a Lounge.
- A group of mice is called a Mischief.
- A group of Raccoons is called a Gaze.
- A group of trout is called a Hover.
- A group of Sandpipers is called a Fling.

Re: A Group of ____ is Called a ____
Yes, it's fun to find these terms. Don't you love an unkindness of ravens and a bloat of hippos? I sometimes find some terms hard to believe they're so funny.SilverHybrid wrote:Interesting thread, Seewah!

Re: A Group of ____ is Called a ____
lol, an unkindness of ravens and a bloat of hippos??! This is very amusing.
A group of rats is a colony.
A group of eggs (unhatched eggs) is called a clutch. (IDK if this counts)
I really don't know any more that haven't been mentioned. >.>
Well, I'm off to pick a bouquet of pheasants , charge my barracuda batteries, confuse the guinea fowl, put leashes on all the coyotes, and jamboree with the jaguars. XD
