It reminds me of the 19th century rat catchers – people who would hunt, often in the sewers, plague-spreading rats and were drastically underpaid (often paid proportionally to the number of rats they killed). They protected the population from deadly diseases and protected the food supply, yet were at the bottom of the social hierarchy.
