Juvenile macaque
The <b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibraltar_Barbary_Macaques" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Barbary Macaque population</a></b> in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibraltar" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Gibraltar</a> is the last in the whole of the European continent, and, unlike that of North Africa, is thriving. At present there are some 230 animals in five troupes occupying the area of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_of_Gibraltar" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Upper Rock</a>, though occasional forays into the town may result in damages to personal property. As they are a tailless species, they are also known locally as <b><i>Barbary Apes</i></b> or <b><i>Rock Apes</i></b>, despite the fact that they are monkeys (<i>Macaca sylvanus</i>). Forming a double paradox, locals simply refer to them as monos (Spanish: <i>monkeys</i>) when conversing in Spanish or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Llanito" rel="noreferrer nofollow">Llanito</a> (the local vernacular).

The Barbary Macaque is considered Gibraltar's unofficial national animal.
