Xingxing, a macaque, was caught in a boar trap when she was a baby and lost a leg. She then ended up in a variety show, from which she was rescued by local residents. Eventually, a nun from the Zhenji Buddhist Temple tamed the macaque, and they have been inseparable for 16 years.
The video shows a disciplinary moment when Xingxing got carried away and nearly bit a tourist. The video has sparked controversy online. Some have called it animal cruelty, while others believe it's just normal parenting: the woman has lovingly cared for Xingxing for 16 years and scolds her the same way any Chinese grandmother would scold her grandchild.
