venery

Don't miss out on "term of venery" -- it means more than STDs and sex.

These are also not terms of venery, as OP repeatedly claims.

There are articles that feature a nerfball of terms of venery.

"terms of venery" is still used as a phrase to refer to those collective nouns for animals.

"term of venery" is also not a noun cluster that anybody uses.

I suggest we adopt terms of venery that subtly reflect reality.

The "Terms of venery" section[0] of the Wikipedia page for collective nouns will probably answer some of your questions.

Rarely use venery but for health or offspring, never to dullness, weakness, or the injury of your own or another's peace or reputation.

In fact, most of the English "terms of venery", the collective nouns for groups of animals, have been simply made up with a rather obvious humorous intent.

I believe they may have grown out of “terms of venery” or words specific to hunting - an activity often divided into class-specific groupings.

Totally going off-topic, but for others like me who love these poetic phrases, they're called "terms of venery", dating back to the late middle ages' hunting tradition [0].In the list I see "coalition of cheetahs" and "kindle of kittens".

I am a little saddened by your downvotes after deciding to actually check the definition of 'venery', without making more assumptions on top of your assumptions, to find that the first definition is in fact 'sexual indulgence'.

That "venery" is an outdated word that ~nobody uses in the hunting sense anymore does not mean that the term "terms of venery", which specifically refers to the pattern of words developed during the time the word was used in that context, isn't relevant anymore.
