Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 7 page critique of the article “Cloning Can Help Humans and Animals” by authors Ian Wilmut, Keith Campbell, and Colin Tudge. These authors support the practice of cloning, contending that part of its positives impacts relate to the reduction of genetic drift in endangered animal populations. This paper notes that there are other considerations of cloning which must be made in regard to their impact on human populations. No additional sources are listed.

Unformatted sample text from the term paper:
article titled "Cloning Can Help Humans and Animals" authors Ian Wilmut, Keith Campbell, and Colin Tudge take the stance that cloning has the potential to result in a number of
positives for humans and animals alike. This stance is to be expected given that the first two of these authors are responsible for the high profile cloning of "Dolly
the Sheep". Granted, the authors are highly credentialed. They have worked in biotechnology most of their adult lives and, consequently, have completed some of the most steps
into cloning that have ever been taken. From all perspectives, however, cloning takes on a number of societal considerations. Some of these considerations are positive but unfortunately far
too many are negative. Sufficient details as to the particulars of the cloning process are absent in this article. Consequently, the authors viewpoints cannot be criticized on the
basis of error of procedure. These viewpoints can, however, be criticized on errors of perspective and errors of reaction. Cloning came to
the forefront of public attention about thirty years ago. It first concentrated on lower life forms such as tadpoles then gradually became more complex over time. With the
entrance of Dolly the cloned sheep, however, the public was hit hard with the reality of cloning mammals and an even more complex possibility, higher mammals such as humans.
It is this possibility which presents the most contrast between potentially beneficial societal applications and potentially disastrous. As Wilmut, Campbell, and Tudge (2002)
emphasize, cloning has many potential uses. These authors tend to veer away from the human applications of cloning, however, and to concentrate on the animal advantage, particularly the advantages
