The Boomerang Monkey is a [[tower]] that throws a curved boomerang in an arc that returns to it if its [[pierce]] is not exhausted.

Likely based off the [[Rang Bloon]] from [[Bloons (game)|''Bloons'']], the tower was introduced in ''[[Bloons Tower Defense 2]]'' as the Boomerang. It is one of only two non-[[Bomb Shooter]] towers that has access to [[Freeze|frozen]] Bloon popping. In [[Bloons TD 4|''Bloons TD 4'']], the Boomerang Thrower's ultimate upgrade is the [[Lightsabre Thrower]], allowing it to pop up to 70 Bloons of any type per shot.

In [[Bloons TD 5|''Bloons TD 5'']], it has two paths that both focus on DPS. The top path focuses on amount of Bloons popped, while the bottom path focuses on attack speed. Its [[Specialty Building]] in ''BTD5'' is the [[Boomerang Dojo]], while its main buildings in [[Bloons Monkey City|''Bloons Monkey City'']] are the [[Boomerang Hut]] and [[Monkey Academy (BMC)|Monkey Academy]] (in the [[Bloons Monkey City (Flash)|Flash version]]) or the [[Boomerang Institute]] (in the [[Bloons Monkey City (mobile)|mobile version]]).

In [[Bloons TD 6|''Bloons TD 6'']] and [[Bloons TD Battles 2|''Bloons TD Battles 2'']], the Boomerang Monkey is classified as a [[Primary]] tower. Its two paths from ''BTD5'' return in slightly modified form, and a third path is added focusing on firing in straight lines and [[MOAB-Class Bloon|MOAB]] knockback.

The Boomerang Monkey appears as a Common [[Ally (BATTD)|ally]] in [[Bloons Adventure Time TD|''Bloons Adventure Time TD'']]. It functions much the same as previous iterations, and can be equipped by all monkey [[Character|characters]].{{Gameplay links|BTD3 link=Boomerang (BTD3)|BTD3 image=BTD2 boomerang button.svg|BTD4 link=Boomerang Thrower (BTD4)|BTD4 image=BTD4HD boomerang unlock.png|BTD5 link=Boomerang Thrower (BTD5)|BTD5 image=BTD5M boomerang icon.png|BTD6 link=Boomerang Monkey (BTD6)|BTD6 image=BTD6 000-BoomerangMonkeyInsta.png|BTDB link=Boomerang Thrower (Battles)|BTDB image=BTD5M boomerang icon.png|BTDB2 link=Boomerang Monkey (Battles 2)|BTDB2 image=BTDB2 000 boomerang monkey.png|BMC link=Boomerang Thrower (BMC)|BMC image=BTD5M boomerang icon.png|BATTD link=Boomerang Monkey (BATTD)|BATTD image=BATTD MinionBoomerangPortrait.png}}

The Boomerang Monkey is a [[Monkey (Bloons Pop!)|Monkey]] unlocked at level 2. It drops down onto Bloons, throwing two boomerangs around it per bounce. It disappears after either hitting the ground border or bouncing off five Bloons. Its [[Mega Monkey]] variant, [[Mega Boomerang Monkey]], pops more Bloons and has an orbiting ring of glaives around it.<gallery widths="100" heights="100" style="text-align:center">

"Boomerang" is a [[Monkey (BCS)|Monkey]] type shared by four [[Card|cards]], including the basic Boomerang Monkey. All of them are [[Primary]]-class damage dealers.

The base Boomerang Monkey is usually depicted as a standard monkey with brown fur, tan skin, and brown eyes wearing a yellow bodysuit with a red curved line on the head (which was a proper boomerang symbol for its first three appearances) and a red line vertically on their torso. It is unclear if the suit benefits their skill in any way.
