You could say that it is a bit more peaceful and less "wild west" than it was 200 years ago. More modern advances in technology for shipping and processing cattle, better access to amenities and higher state of living makes the livest of cowhands and ranchers a little easier than it was for them long ago.

it was rough because cowhands went through bad weather, risky river crossing, stampedes, occasional attacks from native americans, and raids from cattle thieves, called rustlers.
