Elephant in Weihai Swaps Hat for Grass

Recently, at Shendiaoshan Wildlife World in Xixiakou, Weihai, Shandong, an elephant became the focus of visitors' attention with its clever behavior. In the footage, a visitor's hat accidentally fell inside the park, and the elephant quickly and accurately picked it up with its trunk, then proactively walked over to the staff to return the hat. The staff gave the elephant a handful of fresh grass as a thank you, and the elephant happily ate it, looking adorably charming. Xixiakou Shendiaoshan Wildlife World is a free-range coastal wildlife park covering 3,800 acres. The park has many animal habitats including a carnivore zone, herbivore zone, and marine animal zone, housing more than 400 species of national Class I and II protected animals, totaling over 4,000 individuals. Here, visitors can hear the roar of tigers and lions, the calls of monkeys and birds, and experience the unique atmosphere of "embracing the wild and returning to nature." Come to Xixiakou Shendiaoshan Wildlife World to witness the intelligence and cuteness of elephants, get close to many rare animals, and embark on a wonderful journey into nature!
