A cowboy is an animal herder who tends cattle on
ranches in North America, traditionally on horseback,
and often performs a multitude of other ranch-related
tasks. The historic American cowboy of the late

northern Mexico and became a figure of special significance
and legend. A subtype, called a wrangler, specifically
tends the horses used to work cattle. In addition
to ranch work, some cowboys work for or participate

ability to work at virtually identical tasks and
obtained considerable respect for their achievements... |
