Stop monkey cruelty in Marrakech for tourist entertainment!

Marocco is a beautiful country with a great diversity of cultures, nature and a rich history! Their hospitality, kindness and treatment toward people and animals is in general heartwarming. 

The only monkeys living in Marocco are the Makakes, also known as the Berbermonkey. They are protected by law in the Atlas mountains and forbidden by law to use for entertainmentpurposes in all of Marocco, except for Marrakech because the government of Marocco considers it as part of their cultural heritage!

The monkeys carry a heavy thick metal collar around their neck attached to a metal chain. I have seen with my own eyes how the monkeys hold their hands around the collar to prevent from being hurt. The owners pull them brutally up by their collar. I have seen the monkeys bite their "owner" and being agressive and looking very distressed!

Please help to stop this cruel form of entertainment which stems from the medieval time and is totally unacceptable!

Please sign now and share as much as possible!

Be the voice for the monkey's and set them free!

With kind regards
