8. Morocco
Score – 79
Various categories of animals have legal protection against suffering in Morocco, including fish in ponds, tanks and reservoirs, working animals, guard dogs and livestock, which are all protected against poisoning. Killing and maiming pets is also against the law. Wild animals are somewhat protected as people need a license to trade, hold or kill any animal that’s protected or endangered species.
More needs to be done, of course, but it’s a start at the very least.
