Related termsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. 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 19th century 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 in rodeos. Cowgirls, first defined as such in the late 19th century, had a less-well documented historical role, but in the modern world have established the ability to work at virtually identical tasks and obtained considerable respect for their achievements. There are also cattle handlers in many other parts of the world, particularly South America and Australia, who perform work similar to the cowboy in their respective nations. The cowboy has deep historic roots tracing back to Spain and the earliest settlers of the Americas. Over the centuries, differences in terrain, climate and the influence of cattle-handling traditions from multiple cultures created several distinct styles of equipment, clothing and animal handling. As the ever-practical cowboy adapted to the modern world, the cowboy's equipment and techniques also adapted to some degree, though many classic traditions are still preserved today.

Q. What would you take - if you had to go directly from work? There is a fridge here - but I'm thinking something in the way of snacks or an appetizer that is cowboy-related. What ideas do you have? Asked by Cookie777 - Tue Aug 29 15:57:43 2006 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments A. Cowboys ate a lot of different foods but if they ate snacks it was probably beef jerky. I would bring something like cornbread, corn muffins, hush puppies even though they're not really cowboy food. If you bring the any of the above mentioned corn type breads, I would add some chili peppers, onion, and chili powder to the recipe. Now that is some good eating and have fun at the party.
