A drover in Australia is a person, typically an experienced stockman, who moves livestock, usually sheep, cattle, and horses "on the hoof" over long distances. Reasons for droving may include: delivering animals to a new owner's property, taking animals to market, or moving animals during a drought in search of better feed and/or water or in search of a yard to work on the livestock. The drovers who covered very long distances to open up new country were known as "overlanders".

  • Un drover a Austràlia és una persona, normalment un ramader amb experiència, que aplega i transporta el bestiar a través de llargues distàncies. Els motius del droving inclouen, entre d'altres: traslladar els animals a la finca d'un nou propietari, portar els animals al mercat, o moure els animals durant una època de sequera, a la recerca d'aigua i menjar. Transportar un ramat petit i calmat és relativament fàcil però, moure diversos centenars de caps de bestiar durant desenes de quilòmetres és una cosa completament diferent. (ca)
