Why Clone?
Cloning animals is a reliable way of maintaining high quality livestock to supply our nutritional needs. Identifying and reproducing superior livestock genetics ensures that herds are maintained at the highest quality possible.
Animal cloning offers great benefits to consumers, farmers, and endangered species:
- Cloning allows farmers and ranchers to accelerate the reproduction of their
most productive livestock in order to better produce safe
and healthy food.
- Cloning reproduces the healthiest animals, thus minimizing the use of antibiotics, growth hormones and other chemicals.
- Cloning can be used to protect endangered species. For example, in China,
panda cells are being kept on reserve should this species' numbers
be threatened
by extinction.
