Tamed muffalo do not display herd behaviour

[Mehni]

If there are a bunch of wild muffalo on the map they will generally stick together and act like a herd.

If you tame a bunch of muffalo, they become individuals and no longer display any herding instincts. A muffalo calf will wander off on its own, completely ignoring its mother and the safety in numbers.

I believe my observations to be correct, but maybe I'm reading too much into a mechanic that turns out to be purely random. Doesn't change the fact that I like the way they look, all huddled together against the hard snow on the tundra. It'd be nice if they could do something similar when tamed.

I wouldn't call this a bug per se, it has more to do with tamed animal mechanics. Tamed animals are allowed to wander independently in their "allowed area" and if you do not restrict their movements they will wander freely. Tamed animals feel safe in your care and do not need to stick together.

I do agree, though, that certain kinds of animals should be more likely to stick together, but it's probably better to post this in the suggestion forum.
