Wrangler
On larger production there can be a variety of different types of wranglers – vehicle wranglers, animal wranglers, child wranglers – it just depends on what the script calls for. In general, a wrangler is someone who’s responsible for people or things that can’t be responsible for themselves, such as wild animals, small children, and inanimate (but sometimes expensive) objects.
