I expected it to be chimps.
She was probably better to not be trained when she first worked with chimps. She hadn't been given a bunch of preconceived notions. She did her own observations and drew her own conclusions.

Sometimes experience is the best and sometimes training. She did go for training later. By then she had done enough observing that they could not change her mind about what she had observed.
She found the right balance between learning and experience.

She is one of those amazing people who have changed the world.
We are lucky to be alive while she is so we can hear her speak. As she has developed her ideas we have been able to hear about them. How fortunate is that.
