A synonym for wild horse in Australia. Brumbies are most commonly found in The Outback, Some parts of The Bush, The
Blue Mountains and The Man From
Snowy River.
Unlike cunt, macca's, copped and other Australian slang, Brumby is quite an old piece of jargon. As the word is mentioned in some of Banjo
Patterson's early poems.
"Was driving from Perth
to Alice Springs and out of no where... A bloody
brumby jumped out from the bushes and in front of my car" - Aussie explaining how his car got wrecked
"There was movement at the station
For the world had passed around
that the Colt from Old Regret had got away
And he joined the wild bush Brumbies
He was worth a thousand pound
So all the cracks had gathered to the
fray"
