Genetic Savings & Clone

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I find pet cloning very interesting and that it can actually be done. There are still many flaws to it and clearly not done on a large scale due to money and ethics but I still think it is interesting and something that could be developed with more research.

Evaluate the article
I do not think that his article has a good lead section and lacks one entirely. It could use an introduction where they introduce the idea of pet cloning and why it is done and a brief overview of the process. The content is up to date due to the fact that the company being discussed was closed so they can't add anymore current info. The tone and balance was good, as the article remains neutral, it is just providing the facts from the cloning company. There are only two sources that are provided for this article and one of them is not very reliable since it is a magazine. The article is clear, concise and easy to read. There are no visuals present to help enhance the article, these could definitely be useful if added. There is very little activity present on the talk window. Overall, the article does a good job at staying neutral and providing the facts of the animal cloning that a company did and how they are no longer a functioning business due to the controversy surrounding pet cloning.
