Cloning pets

August 05, 2008
Five pit bull terrier cloned dogs and their surrogate mother are seen at the Seoul National University in Seoul, South Korea.

The Seoul National University and RNL Bio Co. -- a firm specialising in the development of stem cell therapeutics and the commercialisation of dog cloning technology -- announced that the firm successfully cloned Bernann Mckinney's pet dog 'Booger'. Booger died in April 2006, but five clones were born from its cells on July 28, 2008.
