| herd |
A large group of grazing animals who occupy the same habitat. Mustangs form herds occasionally, usually when under pressure because of weather or when forced to by crowded conditions. Mustangs are not territorial, but nomadic, and are generally found in family units known as bands. Migratory animals, such as elk, form large herds only when moving from mountains to valleys in the fall.
