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!

Group of Rhinos is called a Crash
Group of Albatross is called a Rookery
Group of Alligators is called a Congregation
Group of Orangutans is called a Shrewdness
Group of Bears is called a Sleuth
Group of Cobras is called a Quiver
Group of Theropod (carnivorous) dinosaurs (i.e. Tyrannosaurus) is called either a Pack or a Rampage
Group of Crocodiles is called a Float
Group Hyenas is called a Cackle


I'll add more later

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.

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

And a group of chickens use to be called a peep. =3
