cowherders
Those minding bovines
Cowherders are people who tend cattle, guiding them to pasture and keeping the herd together.
The term is a straightforward compound—those who herd cows.
The cowherders moved the cattle to higher ground for summer grazing.
Cowherd alone serves as both noun and verb; cowherder emphasizes the person doing the work.
