Guerrouch is a region of Algeria within the Petite Kabylie of the Tell Atlas Mountain Range.[1] The Guerrouch is one of the few remaining habitats for the endangered primate Barbary macaque, Macaca sylvanus; prehistorically this primate had a much wider distribution, prior to deforestation activity by the expanding human population.[2]
