Summarize Argument

The author concludes that a British policy to quarantine imported domesticated animals cannot successfully prevent rabies outbreaks. This is supported by the claim that wild bats are susceptible to rabies and can fly into Britain; furthermore, they can’t be quarantined. This leads to the sub-conclusion that rabies spread by wild bats cannot be controlled by the policy.

Describe Method of Reasoning

The author introduces evidence about bats to show that the scope of the policy fails to address one important cause of rabies, the phenomenon it seeks to prevent. This is used to demonstrate that the policy cannot be effective in its aim of preventing rabies.
