The Gibraltar monkey (Macaca sylvanus) is an Old World monkey currently found in some small parts of the Atlas Mountains in northern Africa and in the Rock of Gibraltar in the southern Iberian Peninsula. It is the only primate, other than man, that can currently be found free in Europe.
Popular tradition has it that as long as the apes persist in Gibraltar, the latter will remain under British rule, so that during the Second World War, when a possible Spanish-German invasion was feared, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill himself order to bring several dozen specimens from North Africa to ensure the survival of its small population.
