Animal Collective at Thirstday

7 March 2016 - Emma Kirk

To celebrate World Wildlife Day at the BIMA Thirstday event we hosted in Edinburgh last week, we created a fiendish animal-inspired quiz for everyone to attempt all about collective names for various creatures.

Congratulations to Helen Visser, Nicola Hancockand Luke McKinney who guessed correctly and who each receive a £10 Amazon voucher.

The full answers are here so you can check what you guessed correctly … or not!

The collective name for a group of …

Baboons is a Troop
Opossums is a Passel
Crocodiles is a Bask
Parrots is a Company
Snakes is a Knot (we love that one!)
Tigers is an Ambush
Owls is a Parliament
Frogs is an Army
Slugs is a Cornucopia
Hares is a Drove
Butterflies is a Flutter (what else could it be?!)
Ostriches is a Herd

How many did you get right?
