A herd is like a big group of friends who like to stay together. Imagine a group of animals, like cows or elephants, who all move and live together. They do this because they feel safe when they are with their friends. Just like when you feel safe holding your parent’s hand in a busy place, animals feel safer in a herd.

Think of a herd as a team. In a soccer team, everyone works together to win the game. In a herd, animals work together to find food and protect each other from danger. If one animal sees something scary, it can warn the others.

A herd is also like a family. Families stay together, help each other, and care for one another. In a herd, animals look out for each other. If one animal gets lost, the others will try to find it or wait for it to catch up.

So, a herd is a group of animals that stick together, like friends, a team, or a family, because they know they are stronger and safer together.
