The donkey in Tunisia is historically a working animal which has existed in Carthage since the Antiquity, and had by the end of the 19th century become widespread. It was used for a number of domestic tasks, linked to traveling, and for transportation of water, agriculture, more specifically, to the cultivation and pressing of olives. The introduction of motorised vehicles considerably reduced their numbers, as their population fell by over half between 1996 and 2006, with a population of 123,000 recorded in 2006. In rural regions, the donkey is only put to use for small, specialized agricultural tasks, such as olive harvesting. The consumption of donkey meat has always been controversial, and it is considered makruh to consume domesticated donkey meat in Islamic tradition. l'Association p

  • L'âne en Tunisie est historiquement un animal de travail, déjà présent à Carthage dans l'Antiquité, et très répandu à la fin du XIXe siècle. Il est mis à contribution pour une foule de tâches domestiques, liées aux besoins de déplacement, au portage de l'eau et à l'agriculture, plus particulièrement à la culture et au pressage des olives. La motorisation des modes de transport en a considérablement réduit les effectifs, qui sont divisés par deux entre 1996 et 2006, avec 123 000 têtes dénombrées en 2006. Dans les régions rurales, l'usage de l'âne est désormais cantonné à de petits travaux agricoles spécialisés, tels que la cueillette des olives. La consommation de sa viande a toujours été controversée, la tradition islamique la considérant comme interdite. L'Association pour la culture et l (fr)
