vultures. Storks travel in musterings, porcupines in prickles, and rats in packs, swarms, or colonies.
rattlesnake. Moles, appropriately, are in labors, hyenas are in cackles (also appropriate), and halibut, well, they're just cool. *A,B,C:1,2,3: Eric, the half a bee* Thank you, and please send me any more interesting groups you may come across. Who knows, I may make another quiz! -M.
