tamers
Circus beast handlers
Tamers is the plural of tamer—one who tames wild or unruly creatures.
Lion tamers work in circuses, bringing dangerous animals under control for performance.
The word extends to anyone who subdues or brings order to chaotic things: tamers of the frontier, tamers of unruly data.
