It's referred to as "safety in numbers". With a large group it's harder for the predators to pick out individuals. Biggest advantage is during birthing season. The young animals are always vulnerable, but in a herd the females can synchronize the births. When there are more new born each day than the predators can handle more of them survive. If they were born at a steady trickle the predators could just pick off a few more each day.
