A Gaggle of Geese, a Pride of Lions, a School of Fish, and More Collective Animal Nouns

Do you ever refer to a gaggle of geese, a pride of lions, a school of fish?

There are hundreds of these nouns of multitude, including those for animals, many of which are deeply embedded in our language despite being several hundred years old. You may refer to a gaggle of geese, a litter of puppies, a flock of ducks, a pride of lions, a pack of wolves, or a murder of crows, but do you know whence they came?
