Cattlemen needed a large crew. The cowboys each had three horses. They worked in shifts and kept watch over their herd 24 hours a day, including the night, to avoid stampedes. The Western Trail crew consisted of several members: the trail boss, the cook, and the horse wrangler. The trail boss was responsible for the cattle and the chuck wagon, while the horse wrangler was in charge of the spare horses. The horse wrangler was usually a young cowboy with low social status. The cook was a highly respected member of the crew. He was also responsible for medical supplies, and had an extensive knowledge of practical medicine.
