Drover's Life!!

Assalamualaikum and hi,,
I would like to share my ELE lesson about the problems faced by a drover and how he overcome the problems. 
(i hope you will enjoy reading the summary)



The drovers had to overcome the problem of the long distances. He needs to provide sufficient for the cattle, if not he need to rely on food found along the route. He had to ride ahead on horseback to check the cattle and redirecting them along the right track. The cattle also might stray into private land. He had to look-out for farms on their route and blow a horn to warn the farmers of his approach. Problems occur when the farmer’s own cattle get mixed up with the travelling herd. Drovers need to sort them and might get involve into quarrels with the ownership. Cattle also are easily frightened by loud noises. He might spend many hours to calm and reassemble those cattle if they got frightened by the noises. He also needs to cope with the robbers which attack for money or cattle. He need to have good knowledge about the cattle and must not overdrive them.
