| I call BS on this quiz. It's obvious why there's no source given. The Oxford English Dictionary does not list definitions for "mischief", "parliament", "lodge", "ugly", "blessing", "convocation", "ambush", or "coalition" which could be remotely construed as groups of mice, owls, beavers, walruses, unicorns, eagles, tigers, or cheetahs, respectively. The words "clan" and "band" can denote any group of living things, not just hyenas and gorillas. Honorable mention goes to "leap", which has what the OED calls an "alleged definition", is marked "obsolete", and is supported by one citation from 1486.
If you try to google these phrases, you will find thousands of page matches, virtually all of which contain a phrase like "Did you know the word for a group of _____ is ______?" Half of the words in this quiz have been invented solely for the purpose of having another name for an animal grouping. No one uses them; they're not part of English.
PS - @AngryPanda: Rabbits do live in a warren, but the OED also defines "warren" as a group of animals living in a warren. Interestingly, a "lodge" is what beavers live in, but a group of beavers is not a lodge. |
