The move, reportedly aimed at improving the country’s image for tourists, has led to outrage among animal rights organisations and activists, who condemn the brutal methods being used to manage the stray population.
Reports suggest that Moroccan authorities are employing inhumane tactics such as poisoning dogs with toxic chemicals, shooting them in public areas, and even beating them to death. The International Animal Welfare and Protection Coalition has expressed serious concerns about the mass killings, while renowned animal rights advocate Jane Goodall has called on FIFA to suspend Morocco’s hosting duties if the culling continues. Goodall, along with other activists, is urging for immediate action to stop the violence.
Despite laws in Morocco that ban the culling of street dogs, authorities allegedly continue these actions unchecked. Animal welfare organisations promoting humane alternatives, like trap-neuter-vaccinate-release (TNVR) programmes, face growing challenges due to limited resources and increasing numbers of stray animals. Overcrowded shelters are struggling to provide care, making it harder to manage the crisis sustainably.
FIFA has not yet issued an official response but is said to be monitoring the situation. Inspections are reportedly underway at Morocco’s proposed World Cup venues to ensure compliance with international standards. Meanwhile, global calls for humane and sustainable solutions are growing, urging Moroccan authorities to reconsider their approach and adopt methods that respect animal welfare.
