THEY may be cute, the may look fun, but be warned… Gibraltar’s latest arrivals are a mischievous bunch.
Up to 30 Barbary Macaque infants have been born in the last month alone, keeping the Upper Rock’s environmental security guards on their toes.
Harmlessly play-fighting with one another and catching a ride on the backs of their elders the infants are said to be ‘largely harmless’.

“They are young and have no boundaries,” he said. “Hopefully their inquisitiveness shouldn’t cause a problem.”
