Australian Drovers do essentially the same job as American cowboys, but do it very differently; this is a video of roping and "branding" a calf.

There was a new ride at the Show, dubbed "brand new and straight from Europe".

Not actually a show picture, this is a tree full of galahs in our neighborhood.

A young Drover's horse. I like how he looks solid and able to do a hard day's work.

Holding the calf. The rope is actually attached to the horse's collar, and then somehow run under the drover's butt.

Drover horse in full gear. Notice the collar; this is where the rope is actually attached (no horn as in a Western saddle). Looks like it runs under the stirrup leather.
