Scientists have Cloned a dog

Wednesday, August 03, 2005

First they cloned a cat. Now, scientists in South Korea have cloned a dog. An article in Newsday gives a pretty good report.

The cloned puppy, named "Snuppy" came from an Afghan Hound, but his embryo was implanted into a Yello Labrador Retriever.

Scientists created 1,095 embryos, that were implanted into 123 dogs. Only three of them "took". One miscarried, one died three weeks after birth, and the other was Snuppy.

  • Yeah, great idea ((eyeroll)). There's not millions of dogs and cats born the good old fashioned way dying in animal control shelters across the country every day???
