What kind of monkey is found on Gibraltar?

The Barbary macaque lives in Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, and Gibraltar. It is a tailless ground-dwelling monkey that has light yellowish brown fur and a bald pale pink face. The species was introduced into Gibraltar, possibly as early as the ancient Romans. According to legend, British dominion over the Rock of Gibraltar will end only when this macaque is gone.
