Nouns describing animals have various plural forms.
Most nouns describing animals have regular plural. Let's see examples below:
1. a cow -> two cows
2. an ant -> many ants
3. one snake -> some snakes
4. this fox -> these foxes
Some animal words have irregular plurals. Let's see examples below:
1. a goose -> four geese
2. a mouse -> some mice
3. a louse -> many lice
Some animal words have no change in the plural. Let's see examples below:
1. a sheep -> five sheep
2. a fish -> some fish
3. one deer -> many deer
In this case, these animal words are called "zero plural".
