Explanation:

However, before the late 19th century, rail stations to transfer these cattle to areas which they could be sold for high prices (usually cities in the east) were scarce or far.
Therefore, ranchers hired professionals to pool and transfer their cattle to the rail stations. These professionals often also herded feral cattle.
