"In the world of biotech and biomedicine, it's usually the mouse or primate that takes center stage. But when the first cloned animal from adult cells was announced, the spotlight fell on a fleecy-white Scottish sheep named Dolly. Dolly was chosen because of the potential she and other large farm animals had for revolutionizing agriculture and medicine. But nearly a decade after her birth--and 18 years since Neal First, a retired University of Wisconsin-Madison researcher, first cloned calves from embryonic cells--cloned animals have yet to make it to the shelf of any American supermarket or pharmacy." (MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL) This article examines the advantages and disadvantages of cloning livestock.
