UAH is secular, intellectual and non-aligned politically, culturally or religiously email discussion group.


{UAH} Gwokto: You are onto something!

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,
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 what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons? Believe it or not … A Parliament! 

YEP....A PARLIAMENT OF BABOONS!  
Pretty much explains everything doesn't it? COPIED‎
