Stray Dogs Pose Growing Threat to Fes’ Safety and Image

Recently, the city of Fes has been facing an increasing challenge with the rising presence of stray dogs roaming its streets and neighborhoods. This growing issue is posing a genuine threat to the safety of residents and visitors alike. The phenomenon, which has notably worsened in some areas, calls for urgent and effective intervention by the relevant authorities, given the negative impacts it has on multiple fronts.

Data indicates that stray dogs have become a common sight in the city’s main streets and residential areas, raising concerns among residents, particularly children and the elderly, who are now at risk of being attacked by these animals, which may also carry contagious diseases.

Beyond security concerns, the presence of stray dogs in public spaces is also detrimental to the city’s cleanliness and public image. These animals contribute to the spread of waste and garbage, which tarnishes the city’s appearance and negatively affects its hygiene. This reflects poorly on the city and contributes to the decline of its tourism appeal, especially in a historic city like Fes, which relies heavily on tourism as an economic driver.

Immediate action from the responsible authorities is now essential. It is crucial for the relevant bodies to take decisive steps to mitigate this issue.
