| 0:00.0 | Scientists have really preyed on beagles because beagles are docile animals. |
| 0:07.0 | They do what you tell them to do. |
| 0:09.0 | And so it's really kind of sad to see where we've come in science. |
| 0:13.0 | Now, the beagles that were housed in kennels at the FDA's own facilities are no longer there. |
