Shan Mi

Shan Mi, a chimpanzee at the Nanning Zoo, gained notoriety in 2022 for its tendency to throw objects at onlookers, earning the nickname 'Throwing Chimp.' The recent incident involving Shan Mi throwing a stone at a visitor, resulting in an injury, has sparked discussions about animal behavior and zoo management practices. Animal trainers suggest that Shan Mi's actions are a form of expressing frustration rather than entertaining the crowd.
