Morocco unveils policies it hopes bolster the care and management of stray dogs

  • Morocco is expanding its Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate and Return program since 2019 to manage stray dogs mostly around Rabat and other cities.
  • This initiative responds to a widespread stray dog issue estimated between 1.2 to 1.5 million animals, with over 100,000 people needing rabies vaccinations after attacks.
  • Veterinarians care for 400 to 500 stray dogs, performing spay and rabies vaccinations before releasing tagged dogs that cannot reproduce or spread disease.
  • A coalition focused on animal welfare accused Morocco of killing 3 million dogs, especially near stadium construction sites, but Moroccan authorities reject these allegations and say reported cases of mistreatment are isolated and do not represent the nationwide situation.
  • Morocco drafts laws enforcing pet vaccinations and penalties for abuse, aiming to balance public health and animal welfare while critics remain skeptical about program reach.
