The term herd is used for many animals, wild and domestic, but primarily for four-legged mammals. These include horses, ponies, zebra, cattle, buffalo, moose, reindeer, antelope, springbok, sheep, goats, llamas, and alpacas. It may also be used for non-flying birds such as ostriches and emus.

Birds are usually a flock, and aquatic life is usually in schools. Specific names include a pod of whales and a gaggle of geese. (see the related link)
