Deer are wired in their thinking to live in herds. They are prey animals and by staying in a large group they have a less chance of being picked off and for a predator to be able to discern them from the mass of moving bodies. Also a deer benefits by being in a herd because they have a better chance of finding a mate, protection, and the wisdom of the older deer.

Deer live in groups, often called herds, for several reasons. One reason is for protection against predators. Being in a group makes it more difficult for predators to single out any one individual. Additionally, groups can help alert each other to potential threats. Living in groups also offers social benefits, such as establishing dominance hierarchies and facilitating mating opportunities.
