Animal Noun Quiz

Animal Nouns

How many do you know?

What do you call a group of tigers? A collection of porcupines?

Collective nouns – the term for a group of anything – are super-fun when it comes to animals, especially the ones we have right here at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium! We’ve decided to swim back-to-school (pun intended) with an interactive quiz to see how many collective nouns you know – or can guess.

And as a bonus, we’ve included one animal that doesn’t have an official collective noun. Feel free to make up your own! (Source: Macquarie Dictionary.)
