The following are a comprehensive live list of animal collective nouns, for your reference and ease of perusal. When it comes to animals, things can get a bit tricky, since animals are creatures that roam either on their own, like a lone wolf other times, they live in groups, such as any of the herd species.īecause of the variety of ways in which animals live with respect to quantity or count, English has evolved to reflect their ways of social or asocial living. In English, nouns (which are names given to people, places, things and ideas) come in two kinds, singular or plural, as mentioned in the above section. We’re not talking about the band, Animal Collective, though they do make good music. Plural nouns refers to more than one person, place, thing or idea. Grammar rule: singular nouns refers to one subject or object. Language is structured to reflect the count of subjects (or sentence objects) by distinguishing between when there is one of something, or more than one: i.e., singular and plural noun forms. When we speak or write, we communicate in count or number even if we don’t consciously realize it. We hope you find these names entertaining, at the very least. Regale in the absurdity of these animal collective group names, such as an implausibility of gnus, or a mischief of mice. It’s safe to say that this list is pretty wild, pun intended.
