I saw on the internet that Dolly the cloned sheep was euthanized
because of a lung infection (not necessarily related to cloning), but they also stated that she appeared to be suffering from premature aging. She only made it to half of a sheep's life expectancy. This appears to be another blow to those that would argue for cloning. They are going to do an autopsy to determine whether the lung infection was related to the fact that she was a clone.

yeah, it does make you wonder. If the Raelians did actually clone a human , is it going to suffer the same kind of fate? That would be sad.

yeah, it'd be interesting to find out if Dolly really had problems coz of cloning. I'm not for it, but it just amazes me how far the science has gone.

It may be an animal, but it is an animal which could tell us if cloning actually works properly or not, Tent.
