(^_^) - Names for Various Animal Groups

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

We are all familiar with a

Herd of cows,

Flock of chickens,

School of fish

And a Gaggle of geese, and

A Pride of lions.

However, less widely known is:

A Murder of crows (as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens),

An Exaltation of doves

Now consider a group of Baboons.

They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive of all primates ...
And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons?

Believe it or not

A CONGRESS !

YEP... A CONGRESS OF BABOONS!

Pretty much explains everything doesn't it?

... You just can't make this up.
