The job title “Cowboy” conjures images of riding range and roping dogies, but real life cowboys in the 21st Century have a lot more to do than wander over yonder and gaze at the moon. Working knowledge of animal science, including animal nutrition, safety precautions and more is required. A cowboy may still ride a horse, but may also need to be able to download information into a computer.So it’s pretty exciting that Barton Community College is proposing to create a program for becoming a Certified Cowboy.
