Pride is lions - is it the same for peacocks? nah - it's on the tip of my tongue - it's something to do with showing off and extravagance. |

The collective noun for baboons is commonly troop or congress, although flange is also becoming common. This unusual term originates from a Not the Nine O'Clock News comedy sketch entitled "Gerald The Intelligent Gorilla" where it was used for comic effect. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baboon |
