Best Answer

The nearest word in Australian English is probably "jackaroo", females are, naturally, "jillaroos".

A US "cowboy" being somebody who herds cattle, usually on horse back over long distances, is traditionally a "Drover" in Australia, the lead man on an overland cattle drive. The "cowhands" would be "Stockmen".
