The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for groups of animals...... There is a Pride of lions; a Murder of crows (as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens); a School of fish; an Exaltation of larks and a Parliament of owls.
Now consider the baboon. The loudest, most dangerous and viciously aggressive of all primates. Is it not ironic, and yet, so appropriate that the proper collective noun for a group of baboons is....a 'Congress' of baboons?
