Sharing an English lesson . . .

Consider this…   The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals. We are all familiar with a herd of cows, a flock of birds, a school of fish, a pride of lions, and a gaggle of geese. Less widely known collectives include a troop of monkeys, a pride of lions, a murder of crows (as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens), an exaltation of doves, and (presumably because they look so wise), a parliament of owls. Now consider a collection of baboons: they are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive, and least intelligent of all the primates. So, what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons? Believe it or not .... a group of baboons is called a CONGRESS!
