drovers
Drovers are individuals who guide and manage livestock, particularly cattle and sheep, from one location to another. This practice often involves long journeys, where drovers lead animals to markets, pastures, or new grazing areas. Historically, droving was essential for transporting livestock before the advent of modern transportation methods.
In many cultures, drovers have played a vital role in agriculture and trade. They often work in teams and use specific techniques to ensure the safety and well-being of the animals. The profession is closely associated with cowboys in the United States and shepherds in various regions around the world.
