Sheep*.

To quote Pratchett:

The merest accident of microgeography had meant that the first man to hear the voice of Om, and who gave Om his view of humans, was a shepherd and not a goatherd. They have quite different ways of looking at the world, and the whole of history might have been different. For sheep are stupid, and have to be driven. But goats are intelligent, and need to be led.

Fun fact: many traditional shepherds include a few goats in a herd of sheep to act as distributed common sense.
