Funny but true! 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 chickens, a
School of fish and a Gaggle of geese. Slightly less widely known is
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.

A group of politicians is parties on the taxpayer.

But 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 Congress.
