A mob of kangaroos and a congress of baboons are both so evocative

The term Congress of baboons really does seem apt

Laughing so hard at this

A prickle of porcupines is just perfect

Some of my favorites are a fluffle of bunnies, a thunder of dragons, and a roll of armadillos

A quiver of cobras, a court of owls, and a string of ponies are some of the more poetic ones I like

A paddle of platypuses just sounds like they’re out for a leisurely swim

Love this one

Conspiracy of ravens

A kaleidoscope of butterflies and a parliament of owls are both so visually striking

I love a business of ferrets, a coalition of cheetahs, a cete of badgers, and a murmuration of starlings

A gaggle of geese is just classic

A charm of goldfinches or an obstinacy of buffalo—both are quite descriptive

A fever of stingrays seems so apt when you see them in the water

A waddle of penguins on land, but when they’re in the water, they’re a raft

A mischief of rats captures their playful troublemaking perfectly

Couldn’t agree more

A tower of giraffes just feels so majestic

A fluffle of bunnies could not be any cuter

That begs the question—do bunnies create a kerfuffle

They might just cause a kefluffle

A shiver of sharks is as chilling as it sounds
