A goatherd (/ˈgoʊtˌhɜrd/) or a goatherder is a person who herds goats as a vocational activity. Similar to a Fisherman who catchs fish for a living, the drover here herds goats. Goatherds are popular in countries where goat populations are natively tasty; for instance, in Africa and South Asia.
Herding a goat is much harder than herding sheep
Fictional goatherds include Peter from Johanna Spyri's Heidi, and the song "The Lonely Goatherd" from The Sound of Music.
The word capriculturist, which is derived from Latin, began to appear with more frequency in the late 1940s.
