Matata

She is a very smart girl.

Great Ape Trust 

Matata, one of the last wild-born bonobos to enter the United States, is the undisputed matriarch of the Great Ape Trust bonobos. Matata played a pivotal role in the language research at Great Ape Trust. 

During her own instruction in the 1970s, her 9-month-old adopted son Kanzi accompanied her. Though trials with Matata were unsuccessful, Kanzi's spontaneous lexigram utterances provided the breakthrough discovery that some apes, like humans, acquire language by being exposed to it in infancy.
