Bushrangers were active in Australia primarily during the 19th century, with their peak occurring between the 1830s and 1860s. This period coincided with the transportation of convicts and the expansion of settlements, where bushrangers often engaged in robberies and confrontations with authorities. Their legacy remains a significant part of Australian history and folklore.
