1
00:00:01,635 --> 00:00:05,138
today on this Tom Content.
Thanks so much.

2
00:00:05,205 --> 00:00:09,009
>> Thank you.
>> Two animal rights groups

3
00:00:09,076 --> 00:00:11,879
announced a deal with a
breeding and biomedical

4
00:00:11,945 --> 00:00:16,016
testing facility to
purchase 1500 of their dogs.

5
00:00:16,083 --> 00:00:19,086
This comes following a
failed but high profile

6
00:00:19,152 --> 00:00:23,056
attempt by activists to
break into the facility and

7
00:00:23,123 --> 00:00:26,693
liberate the animals.
Earlier this month, Ridglan

8
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,997
Farms was investigated for
animal abuse but was not

9
00:00:30,063 --> 00:00:32,633
charged on the condition
they agreed to give up

10
00:00:32,699 --> 00:00:35,769
their breeding license.
Next week on our program,

11
00:00:35,836 --> 00:00:38,939
we'll speak with the
special prosecutor in that

12
00:00:39,006 --> 00:00:42,042
case. But the animal rights
group says more needs to be

13
00:00:42,109 --> 00:00:46,246
done to end what it says is
unnecessary. Biomedical

14
00:00:46,313 --> 00:00:50,551
testing on animals.
>> This system of testing

15
00:00:51,151 --> 00:00:56,123
is broken. It's been broken
for a very long time. The

16
00:00:56,190 --> 00:01:00,093
data show that in more than
90% of cases where a new

17
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:05,065
drug passes muster, in ten
years of animal tests, when

18
00:01:05,132 --> 00:01:08,168
it then goes to human
clinical trials, it fails

19
00:01:08,235 --> 00:01:11,538
more than 90% of the time.
You know, the NBA playoffs

20
00:01:11,605 --> 00:01:14,708
are happening now. If you
had a free throw shooter

21
00:01:14,775 --> 00:01:19,246
who hit one of every ten
free throws, that person,

22
00:01:19,313 --> 00:01:24,218
that player would be on the
bench. Why is a 92% failure
