How do you call groups of dinosaurs?

[Chris Simon]

Flock of Struthomimus
Cacophony of Apatosaurs
Carnage of Allosaurs
Troop of Ankylosaurs
Loop of Hadrosaurs
Reign of Tyrannosaurs
Murder of Oviraptors

Ideas?

"Herd" is such a crude term. So is flock.
I want to go for something more creative!

A clap of Tyrannosaurus rexes?

A clap of Tyrannosaurus rexes?

You're a mean person.

 

[mrbadexample]

You're a mean person.

And proud of it!

 

[Winterwalker]

Well it's a pod of pelicans (bizarrely)

A rumble of Brachiosaurs?

 

[StiTch]

Some Apatosaurs
Some Allosaurs
Some Ankylosaurs
Soma Hadrosaurs
Some Tyrannosaurs
Some Oviraptors

I've learned to take all my dinosaur terms from Ark. I would like to think I can pride myself on the accuracy of my collective terms, at least in relation to said survival game.

A group of dilophosaurus.
A compy pack.
A buffet of moschops.
A swarm of insect biting crapheads.
A troll of Ichthyornis.
A self healing support group of pigs that would make Brick Top proud.
A "D'yathinkhesawme?" of T-Rex.

Ya can start to see where I began to break down playing that game...

[Arnaudosaurus’02]

Flock of Struthomimus
Cacophony of Apatosaurs
Carnage of Allosaurs
Troop of Ankylosaurs
Loop of Hadrosaurs
Reign of Tyrannosaurs
Murder of Oviraptors

Ideas?

You could also try to create a bond between the visitors and the animals by putting the word ‘Family’ before every group.
A family of Parasaurolophus
A family of Brachiosaurus
A family of T-Rex
Etc...
Just a thought!

Edited title for you Chris.

Umm, was there a typo?
It looks the same to me.

 

[Yaffle]

Collective nouns are fun.

How about:
A cleverness of velociraptors
A point of triceratops
A thag of stegosaurs
A ptroop of pteranodons

I like those!
And I really hope that those species are included because they’re epic!
