A Murder Of Crows – And Other Names For Animal Groups

Posted on by blogger

I was hiking with a group in Western Massachusetts a while back, and we saw a group of wild turkeys. Was it a flock? A covey? A troop? Have you ever gotten baffled by the plurality of something? Vernacular for groups of animals was much more commonplace with 15th through 17th century English speakers than it is today. Thanks to author and literary researcher, James Lipton, these terms are shared in his book, “An Exaltation of Larks”.

Mr. Lipton’s purpose was to re-introduce the poetic and descriptive terms taught in old English books of courtesy. These texts taught young noblemen proper terms for the hunt. A nobleman could not hold his head up proudly if he didn’t know that a group of foxes was a “skulk” and an assemblage of pheasants was a “nye”.

It must have been entertaining to come up with these descriptors. You’ll find that many are quite expressive of the animals portrayed, for instance a leap of leopards or a paddling of ducks. Others seem to come off the top of the head when looking at an assemblage, such as a knot of toads. Still others convey an obvious opinion by the one who bestowed the name, such as an unkindness of ravens or a destruction of wildcats. Though some may sound tongue-in-cheek now, such as a mute of hounds, in actuality, “meute” in Old French meant pack, as in a pack of dogs.

Many of these terms have long slipped out of our everyday (or every-year) language. Some still linger. Rest assured, they were once written, published, spoken, and correctly used when the English language was more extravagant. So, here are a number of odd, descriptive, and just plain amusing names for groups of various animals. Have fun with them.

Birds:
A convocation of eagles
A cast of hawks
A host of sparrows
An ostentation of peacocks
An unkindness of ravens
A murmuration of starlings
A paddling of ducks
A gaggle of geese on the water
A skein of geese in flight
A descent of woodpeckers
A charm of finches
A party of jays
A colony of penguins
A company of parrots
A parliament of owls
A murder of crows
An exaltation of larks

Other animals:
A barrel of monkeys
A nest of vipers
A string of ponies
A swarm of bees
A crash of rhinoceroses
A mob (or troop) of kangaroos
A kindle of kittens
A clutter of cats
A kennel of dogs
A knot of toads

Oh, and by the way, it’s a rafter of turkeys.

The demand for PET is highest in Asia. China is driving the majority of the demand for PET in the world. The demand in advanced countries like Japan has largely stabilized.

However, certain new and upcoming applications of PET are driving the North American market. The North American demand for PET in 2009 was close to 3.1 million tons in 2009. The PET demand in South and Central America is growing fairly strongly. This region consumed around 2 million tons of PET in the year 2009.

The GDP of countries like China and India in Asia are growing at rates higher than the global GDP growth rates. The key markets consuming PET are also growing in these countries. The strong economic growth along with the large population enables the large consumption of Carbonated Soft Drinks (CSDs) and bottled water in the region. The rapidly changing lifestyle of people in the region supports the consumption of packaged food. China has also grown rapidly in the capacity and production of petrochemicals. China is the largest producer of PET in the region and exports to many countries.

CSD is the largest market for PET globally. Because of its light weight, toughness and clarity, PET is the most preferred material for CSD bottles. Bottled water is the second biggest PET consuming market globally. CSD and bottled water together account for more than 65% of the global PET demand. However, the packaged food segment is also a very important and growing market for PET. The beer market is largely untapped but has strong potential for growth with regard to PET applications.
