The response used by a herd of deer and a school of fish for protection from predators is "grouping".
Deer form herds while fish form schools as a way to increase their safety in numbers. By grouping together, they are able to confuse predators, making it more challenging for predators to single out and target an individual. The larger the group, the harder it is for predators to effectively hunt and capture prey. Additionally, when prey animals group together, they can also be alert to potential threats and communicate danger more effectively, allowing them to escape from predators more easily. Therefore, grouping is an important predator avoidance strategy for both deer and fish.
