They like to stay together because the risk of any single animal being eaten is reduced. While moving in groups is good against predators it has it negatives because there may not be enough food for everyone in the group in certain places. While not having food they still stay together because the cost of this social interaction is less than the cost of being attacked by predators. According to The Knowledge Project, “ In the circumstance of an attack by a predator, the odds of one individual being targeted are 100% for solitary individuals, 1% in a group of 100, and 0.1% in a group of 1000.” This shows that grouping is working for this species and is lowering the chance of being attacked my a lot.

Beaning attacked by animals less causes the wildebeest to be able to live longer and reproduce more.

In highschool some people may stay in groups to avoid being bullied, in a way this would be grouping to avoid “predators”.
