Biotechnologies: Who Benefits From Cloning?
Text Catherine Bastide-Costes - Pictures Hermeline/Aniwa
In its number from April 5 on animals, the weekly magazine Courrier International dedicated a report to the cloning of endangered wild species, and more surprisingly, of pets. At the end of the report, a frightening conclusion: in a little while, the clone of your purring companion will outlive your children and grand children too.

Cloning endangered species for the good reason?

Everyone remembers Dolly the sheep, the first mammal cloned in the world. The experience had occurred in Edinburgh in 1997, at the Roslin Institute. Besides the technical performance, Dolly was the living proof that cloning could be done on the most evolved animals and that only morals would set the limit of its use.

Since that time, the research turned towards very different axis such as providing series of genetically modified animals, able to produce therapeutic substances in their blood or milk, or saving endangered, wild species from becoming extinct. Audubon Zoo, Louisiana, or San Diego Zoo, California.
