It was a standard day at the Shendiaoshan Wild Animal Nature Reserve in Weihai, China, earlier this year, when a toddler accidentally dropped their shoe into the elephant enclosure.

🩴 Saving the shoe... A group of onlookers, who thought the tiny sandal was lost for good, were delighted when a clever elephant named Shanmai gently picked up the shoe and extended their trunk towards the barrier, returning the shoe to its owner.

  • Shanmai was rewarded with a ripe piece of watermelon for their efforts.
