Australia's history is filled with notorious bushrangers, but among these figures, two women stand out for their involvement in outlaw activities during the colonial period: Mary Ann Bugg and Jessie Hickman.

Both Mary Ann Bugg and Jessie Hickman defied the traditional gender roles of their time, proving that women could be just as audacious and rebellious as their male counterparts in the often lawless world of Australian bushranging. Their stories contribute to the rich tapestry of Australia's frontier history.

Join Holly & Matthew as they delve into the lives of Mary Ann Bugg and Jessie Hickman, two women who broke the mould in Australia's bushranger history.
