A drover is a person who moves livestock long distances across land—essentially the Australian equivalent of the American cowboy. Drovers are paid for the number of cattle or sheep that they deliver to a new location at the end of each journey, and because they cover such long distances with the livestock in question, they can sometimes be on the road for years.
