Man has done some amazing things here on earth. Some which have benefited us greatly while some only helped to create destruction, death and war. Scientist have always been fascinated with the genetic makeup of both man animals and animals. What makes us who we are and if it can be duplicated. Well, the breakthrough came when scientist managed to clone a sheep named dolly.
Dolly was justifiably famous for being the "first" land animal cloned from an adult somatic cell. A somatic cell is a cell that is not formed as part of the fertilization process, ( somatic cell is any cell of the body except sperm and egg cells). Somatic cells are diploid, meaning that they contain two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent. Dolly's original cell was taken from adult mammary tissue of an already-grown sheep. Scientist has how ever argued that The first animal to be cloned was a sea urchin in 1885. Now i would ask why on God's earth would any one want to clone a sea urchin?

They however have not come out and said that they have cloned a human. Being that there is a Law in place to block such activities. But we all know how the world government runs. The most secretive experiments being done today are quite unlawful and chances are that the government is somewhere in an isolated part of the world cloning soldiers as we speak. They may even be cloning very important people so that in case an organ needed if these people should become terminally ill, it can be harvested from these clones.

What seems to be the new trend is to clone your pets to ensure that after the original has died, you have a copy that you can still love and care for! There are some pet owners who have solicited pet cloning companies to do just that. As much as how i love my pets, i don't think i would feel the same way about a clone like how i would the original. It is just that thought which would keep coming to my head telling me that this animal is a fake. Then the next thing is that they may can clone hair, color, eyes and all, but they have not broken into the character and soul line just yet. That unique flavor which actually makes everything different, no matter how similar we look physically.
Companies such as Perpetuate provides a service such as DNA preservation. They preserve this DNA by culturing and cryporeserving viable cells from pets. These cells that are harvest can be used to clone your pet. The company will preserve the animal's bloodline for medical and diagnostic treatments. PERPETUATE is the world's first and foremost animal genetic preservation company. Cell lines from pets and horses in more than 30 countries have been developed by PERPETUATE. They claim that more pets have been cloned from their cells than from any other company.
As much as many people hate the idea of cloning, my guess is that it will become one of the most biggest business in the near future where every and anything will be cloned once you are able to afford it.
