Herding animals capitalizes on a behavior shared by some animals, interestingly called “herd animals”. Sheep have a behavior which causes them to stay in a group, because this makes it harder for a predator to attack them. Using sheep dogs to herd them capitalizes on this “feature”, using a dog to make them move from place to place in a big group.
