its the balance of the system... ecologically most herbivorous animals have this innate tendency to be in groups to protect themselves and most carnivorous animals have a tendency to be singular or to detach themselves from other members of the same group other than mating rituals. its a delicate balance evolved from the ages.

if the big cats have this capacity to be in groups no animals will survive this massive strength, so evolution has played its own cards in making this positive by making the carnivorous animals powerful and singular entities and the weaker sections to be in massive heard to protect themselves by their numbers against the powerful animals.
