Why was there so many bushrangers in the 1700s to the 1800s?
The high numbers of bushrangers in the 1700s and early 1800s were due to the numbers of escaped convicts. Becoming a bushranger was often the only way for an escaped convict to survive. Numbers of bushrangers after 1851 increased as a result of the gold rushes. Coaches or people on horseback carrying gold from the goldfields were easy targets for bushrangers.

What did bushrangers do in the 1850s?
No matter which decade they lived in, bushrangers used the cover of the Australian bush, which was dense and therefore easy for them to hide in, to ambush travellers or people living in outlying settlements. Once the goldrushes of the 185os began, there were plenty of pickings among the coaches that carried the gold and currency between the major centres. Bushrangers in these times targetted the coaches because, even though they often had police escorts, experienced bushrangers could easily ambush the travellers and overpower the police. Some of the bushrangers robbed banks.
