Following months of data collection, the Upper Rock Ape Management team, along with the Chairman of the research panel for the Gibraltar Barbary macaques, Professor Agustin Fuentes are well on their way to bringing to light the macaques sporadic movements around the Rock, as well as their incursions into the more built up areas.
