I don't have a linky for this, but I'm sure people have tried to teach apes & chimps to throw. Aside from chimps teaching themselves to throw poo at zoo visitors.

But in general they don't have the neural hardware to precisely time the release as accurately as we do. Even a millisecond difference changes the trajectory a lot.
