Good Q, Jackie. BTW what do you call a herd of horses? A bunch of cattle are called a herd but it seems undignified to call a bunch of horses a "herd".
And, while we're at it, how come "a bunch" is plural but "a herd" is singular (likewise "a crowd")? Or should we say "a bunch of cattle is called a herd"? Doesn't sound right to me but I guess it's correct, huh?
