But the point is that when I was first in Gombe in 1960 -- I remember so well, so vividly, as though it was yesterday -- the first time, when I was going through the vegetation, the chimpanzees were still running away from me, for the most part, although some were a little bit acclimatized -- and I saw this dark shape, hunched over a termite mound, and I peered with my binoculars.
Ali bit je da, kad sam prvi puta došla u Gombe 1960 -- sjećam se toga tako dobro, tako živopisno, kao da je bilo jučer -- prvi puta, kad sam prolazila kroz vegetaciju, čimpanze su još uvijek bježale od mene, većinom, iako neke su bile više priviknute -- i vidjela sam taj tamni obris, nagnut iznad termitskog humka, i virila sam sa svojim dvogledom.
