Like Muslims around the world, Moroccans traditionally sacrifice a sheep as part of the celebrations of Eid al-Adha.
However, the price of sheep in Morocco has soared in recent years due to drought, which makes the purchase of sheep out of reach for many Moroccan families.
SOUNDBITE (Arabic): MBAREK, Sheep breeder in Marrakech region, Morocco
"Prices are a bit high this year because of the drought. Morocco has lacked rain since 2019 and we hope the future will be better because the situation of farmers is currently difficult. There's also transport and fuel prices, and we know people find sheep expensive this year, but everything comes from the lack of rain this year."
To cope with the rising prices of sheep, Moroccan sellers are turning to Spain, where they can buy sheep at more affordable prices. According to Morocco's Ministry of Agriculture, Morocco has imported about 600,000 sheep from Spain since the beginning of the year.
