Jillaroo’s are young girl drovers and Jackaroo’s are guys. The Jill’s are pretty hardy, they have to be. It’s a learning thing for both. Kinda like an entry into adulthood for them. I stayed in a bunkhouse with the “Jill’s” - the station was almost the size of Rhode Island. Needed a helicopter to get around the whole place. The drovers use ATV’s and dirt bikes to herd the cattle, the ‘choppers are used to round up strays. It’s amazing - and FUN!!!!!
