A flock of auklets exhibit swarm behaviour. Swarm behaviour, or swarming, is a collective behaviour exhibited by entities, particularly animals, of similar size which aggregate together, perhaps milling about the same spot or perhaps moving en masse or migrating in some direction.

A short, blurry video shows dozens of sheep walking in a circle around something invisible. Look closely to find the probable explanation.
Each sheep lifts its head upwards to check the position of other sheep in the flock. This constant monitoring is probably what keeps the sheep in a flock as they move along grazing. Sheep become stressed when isolated; this stress is reduced if they are provided with a mirror, indicating that the sight of other sheep reduces stress. [83]

Livestock guardian dogs protect goats, sheep, cattle, and chickens from predators which of course helps farmers and ranchers from losing animals on the farm (read: losing money).
Marco Polo sheep are similar in behavior to other members of the genus Ovis. [34] They generally live in small flocks of a few dozen. [5] During the summer, they break into smaller flocks of the same sex. [34] During and after the rut, however, they group together to form larger groups for protection, and to conserve energy. [35]
