One puppy was cloned from the cells of a dog that had died 12 days before. [33] Sinogene, a Beijing, China-based biotechnology company, was reported in December 2017 to have cloned Apple, a gene-edited dog, named "Longlong". In 2019, the first batch of monotocous cloned police dogs was born. [34] [35] [36]
Cloning has been used by scientists since the 1950s. [5] One of the most well known clones is Dolly the sheep. Dolly was born in the mid 1990s and lived normally until the abrupt midlife onset of health complications resembling premature aging, that led to her death. [5] Other known cloned animal species include domestic cats, dogs, pigs, and ...
Dolly (5 July 1996 – 14 February 2003) was a female Finn-Dorset sheep and the first mammal that was cloned from an adult somatic cell. She was cloned by associates of the Roslin Institute in Scotland, using the process of nuclear transfer from a cell taken from a mammary gland. Her cloning proved that a cloned organism could be produced from ...
The only extinct animal to be cloned as of 2022 is a Pyrenean ibex, born on July 30, 2003, in Spain, which died minutes later due to physical defects in the lungs. [12] [13] Some animals have been cloned to add genetic diversity to endangered species with small remaining populations, thereby avoiding inbreeding depression.
10 December 2020 (age 3) Carr, Colorado. Known for. The first cloned black-footed ferret. Elizabeth Ann (born December 10, 2020) is a black-footed ferret, the first U.S. endangered species to be cloned. [1][2] The animal was cloned using the frozen cells from Willa, a black-footed female ferret who died in the 1980s [3] and had no living ...

Maya (Chinese: 玛雅) is a cloned female arctic wolf that was born from a beagle surrogate mother in China. She was born on June 10, 2022, and news of her birth was revealed to the public on September 19 of the same year at Harbin Polarland, in China's Heilongjiang Province, by the biotechnology company Sinogene.
CC, for "CopyCat" or "Carbon Copy" [1] (December 22, 2001 – March 3, 2020), was a brown tabby and white domestic shorthair and the first cloned pet. [2] She was cloned by scientists at Texas A&M University in conjunction with Genetic Savings & Clone Inc. CC's surrogate mother was a tabby, but her genetic donor, Rainbow, was a calico domestic ...
