I think he may have meant the American Bison (at least that's what I thought).  Those came with ES.

One of my giraffes was calling the herd over towards my Sky Tram Station when I first purchased it and they all poked their heads over the fence!

I had to wait about three months for my buffalo to start herding but after that they kept on doing it. If you're patient it should happen.

I guess that makes it more realistic because is real life the animals have to get use to the rest of the herd

My bongoes herded once. They all gathered from all parts of the exhibit and traveled as a herd. They broke up too soon:crying:

In a huge savannah zoo that I made with widebeest and lions I've noticed that my lions have been staying together in a pride, only one female left the pride and found a lone male that was wandering around the savannah. Anyone else notice something like that?

Mine will sometimes say "Hunting Zebra 3 As A Pride" And one takes the first hit and then the others join in. BOOM! Dinner.

Herding takes 3 months to become affective and prides/packs I think less. These are the statistics for my game.

Wow AA sound like fun. It looks like most people say that herding doesnt happen much and when i first read about it i imagined they would herd all the time like permanently move as one. I plan to get it soon and will try and post pics of herding!
