ABOUT BOOK
Have you been curious what to call creatures gathered together in a group? When was the last time you saw a Bask of Crocodiles, a Crash of Rhino or a Leap of Leopards? The next time you see an Armoury of Aardvarks, a Coalition of Cheetahs or a Tower of Giraffe, refer to them as exactly that!
Stumbled upon a Prickle of Porcupines? Did you know a male is called a boar, a female a sow and a baby a porcupette? How about a Pangopup? Our precious Pangolins are not only hunted – they don’t even have a collective noun! That’s where we come in!
A Business of Flies and a Herd of Antelope. A pesky fly and even lice get collective nouns sbut not our Eland? How can you compare a Rhebok to an Eland? Surely they can’t all be just herds?
