In southwestern Morocco, goats climb trees. They scramble up argan trees to eat the fruit, sometimes half a dozen balanced in the branches at once, and farmers have long collected the seeds they leave behind to press into argan oil. Morocco also has Fes el Bali, one of the largest car free urban areas in the world.
