What is the difference between a pet and a aaaaaa^[7]? While there is significant overlap between the two,  a aaaaaa^[7] also can refer to less traditional companion animals, e.g. hives of bees, a flock of ducks, treasured orchids or a special tree. In modern blended families aaaaaa ^[7] could even describe  emerging technological creations. Military animals that serve alongside humans are also aaaaaa ^[7]s.
