Herd behavior benefits wildebeests primarily by **decreasing the chance of spreading disease**. By living in groups, wildebeests can reduce the likelihood of individual exposure to pathogens, as not every individual will come into contact with the same sources of disease. Additionally, herd behavior can provide protection against predators and increase the chances of survival for individuals within the group.
