>>5115700 currently reading Reflections of Eden she doesn't come across as evil, but certainly autistic and more than a little mean-spirited when it comes to her ex-husband without talking to Mr (((Murphy))) directly, I can only assume he thinks she's evil because she commited that most heinous of sins: she told the stupid natives that they shouldn't cut down their trees because wonderful orange apes live in them as an aside, Fossey did nothing wrong everyone who likes Gorillas even a little bit would have become racist if they had to live halfway up a mountain and spend hours every day looking for a family group to study only to find their hands and heads had been cut off by sambos

>>5115700 She's not beyond criticism, but "evil" is not a serious claim. At the absolute WORST she's "sloppy, but well-meaning." To summarize the criticism against her: In the early 90s, the BKSDA got annoyed because she was bad about renewing her research permits and didn't keep adequate records. Around the same time, younger primatoligists got pissed because she went on these fanciful escapades trying to rescue orangutans instead of studying them (obviously hindsight is 20/20, but this was before palm oil had TOTALLY devastated the population). She would expose baby orangutans to humans more than we consider appropriate nowadays, but again this was before anybody knew better. Academics also got really snobby about her delegating observation duty to untrained volunteers and charging a fee for these excursions (which in hindsight, we've learned a TON of rare pongo behaviors from this 24/7 crowdsourcing, and the money really helps. Today, all serious charities have a similar retreat program to generate funds). All of her remaining enemies have a personal vendetta against her for unrelated reasons. Her nemesis, Michelle Desilets, for example, is mostly just upset about a single encounter she had as a volunteer at Camp Leakey in 1997. Michelle was doing a pretty lousy job and spent all day moping instead of working. So Birute (an athiest) told her to "find peace with god". Birute really meant "find peace with [mother nature]", but Michelle thought she was just a crazed jesus freak. This pissed Michelle off so much that she quit and turned to the dark side like fucking Anakin Skywalke, dedicating the past 30 years shilling for the RSPO.
