The lexica for (at least) English and French shipped with Unitex
(http://www-igm.univ-mlv.fr/~unitex/) encode such features like

+Hum - human being
+Anl - animal
+Conc - concretum
+Abst - abstractum
+Unit - unit of measure
+HumColl, +AnlColl, ... - collective
... and some more

e.g.:

gang,.N+HumColl:s
gangs,gang.N+HumColl:p
woman,.N+Hum:s
women,woman.N+Hum:p
serpents,serpent.N+Anl:p
sheep,.N+Anl:s:p
subject,.N+Abst:s
subjects,subject.N+Abst:p
