Anthropomorphic Nouns

The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals.

We are all familiar with a Herd of cows, Flock of chickens, School of fish  Gaggle of geese A Pride of lions. However, less widely known is: 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 Congress of owls.  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 Parliament YEP....A PARLIAMENT OF BABOONS! Pretty much explains everything doesn't it?
