If you are referring to an individual who protects sheep herds, then that is a Shepherd. Often in mountainous areas where sheep herds are raised there is an individual who travels with the sheep and 'herds' them or moves them from one grazing area to another. this kind of Shepherd also protects the herd from predators, poachers, and other dangers that any of the sheep may happen upon. This shepherd may also stay with the sheep herd for a period of time, sometimes up to 3 months, whereby they are with the herd night and day, living in either a travel shelter or in shelters/cabins that have been built at each of the grazing locations for that purpose.
However, if you are referring to the protector sheep. Meaning the male sheep who protects the herd and his mates, then that is a Ram.
