Sometimes the name we give to a group of a particular kind of animals is so common that we don’t give it much thought. For instance, someone might refer to a “herd” of deer or elk or cattle. Most people could probably figure out, if they don’t already know, that the ‘herd’ is a group of deer or elk or cattle, so the reference is simply to multiple individuals.
However, some group names are much less common and they can be specific to a certain kind of animal. In this quiz, the name of the group is going to be given. Your task is to match the name of the group with the kind of animal. To make it more interesting, the pictures used will have nothing to do with the correct answer.
Fair warning, though: This is not an easy quiz, though I hope it is a fun one.

7/10 Better thank I expected!
That is really a good score!
got 2 out of 10 right!
This wasn’t a very easy quiz. Many of the group names don’t make a lot of sense at first.
5 out of 10. Lol at least half way there.
That is really a good score. This was a difficult quiz.
4/10 😀 Most of terms I don’t even know on my native language. 😀 But, I enjoyed your great quiz 🙂
I wouldn’t have any idea at all what they would be in any other language besides English.
I was interesting to compare 🙂
It would indeed be interesting.
And also difficult to pronounce,at least for a 50% people here 😀
I’d say that is a pretty safe assumption. There are a number of languages that are that way. Judging from the letters in many words, I have a feeling that Icelandic or Nordic would also be extremely hard and complicated (at least, as far as I am concerned. lol)
Half correct, 5 out of 10, nice quiz 🙂
Good job! I’m glad that you like the quiz.
Got 8/10..cool quiz 🙂
That’s a great score! Good job!
Thanks a lot Rex…I’ve learned a lot and enjoyed your quiz 🙂
got five..not satisfied with my score..lol
That isn’t a bad score. If you learned something new, it is also a very good thing.
9 out of 10. This was fun.
Wow! That is a really good score!
Great quiz, I only got 3 out of 10
You now know some group names for animals that you didn’t know before, huh? lol
A very few. Lol. Hard to figure out most of them
Yeah, they aren’t exactly intuitive. For most of them, you’d need to have heard about them before. Some of them only make sense when you really think about them afterward.
I got 4 out of 10…great quiz!
This wasn’t a very easy quiz, was it? :))
this is interesting
I’m really glad that you liked it. This was a fun quiz to make.
Got 6 correct. Never heard of the last one, so cool!
That is a good score! We have occasional infestations of grasshoppers here in Montana and the group name is appropriate. When they raise up out of a field, they sort of look like a cloud of smoke.
That sounds really cool. Nature is amazing.
Yes, but if you drive through a cloud, the windows need to be rolled up or there will be grasshoppers inside the car. If you walk through a cloud, you learn quickly to keep your mouth closed, too. :))
I can imagine you would!
5 out of 10 right! Learnt something new
Good job! I’m also glad to hear that you learned something new. :))
interesting quiz… something new i got
I’m glad that you liked it. I had a lot of fun writing it.
Yeheyhey… Written message for me:
You got 4 out of 10 right!
You did really well, especially considering how hard the quiz was. :))
Yea, that’s fine, Rex. Fun is the most important, right?
I think that it is, though I also love learning. I had a lot of fun writing this one, though.
Three wrong out of ten. Leaping lizards I didnt know a bunch of Giraffes were called a tower, nor a coalition of leopards. I should of known a cloud of grasshoppers but didnt. This was harder than I expected, good quiz here.
You did really well. It wasn’t an easy quiz at all. I thought people might like the part about Giraffes. A group of leopards is a leap, though. Coalition of cheetahs. 🙂
opps, see what I mean? Ive heard of a pride of lions but thats it on the big cats.
In a way, it is moot. Lions are social animals, but leopards usually aren’t. Cheetahs usually aren’t, either, except in family groups. “Coalition” probably dates back from when there were a lot more cheetahs than there are today.
