Our Wonderful Language

The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals. Consider these examples. 

We are all familiar with a: Herd of cows, Flock of chickens, School of fish a Gaggle of geese, and A Pride of lions. However, less widely known is: A Murder of crows An Exaltation of doves And, presumably because they look so wise: A Congress of owls. Now consider a group of Baboons. They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates......... And the proper collective noun for a group of baboons is - Believe it or not ……. A Parliament     That's right, A PARLIAMENT OF BABOONS! Pretty much explains everything doesn't it?
