cattle drivers
Livestock trail workers
Cattle drivers are workers who move herds of cattle over long distances, typically on horseback.
The term evokes the American Old West, when drivers guided cattle along trails from ranches to railheads or markets: The cattle drivers pushed the herd north to Abilene.
The work required weeks on the trail, managing animals across open range.
