The
Wild Bunch, also known as the
Doolin–Dalton Gang or the
Oklahombres, was a
gang of outlaws based in the
Indian Territory that terrorized
Kansas,
Missouri,
Arkansas, and
Oklahoma Territory during the 1890s—robbing banks and stores, holding up trains, and killing lawmen. They were also known as
The Oklahoma Long Riders because of the long
dusters that they wore. Of all the outlaw gangs produced by the
American Old West (the gang was formed in the last decade of the 19th century), none met a more violent end than the Wild Bunch. Only two of its eleven members survived into the 20th century, and all eleven met violent deaths in gun battles with lawmen.
