Dolly grew normally and was bred twice with a ram. She gave birth to perfectly normal lambs. This technique could be used to create clones of the very best farm animals. Only about 1% of embryos made this way result in live births.

organs for transplants, such as hearts, lungs and livers. It could also be used to make cells that could treat or cure diseases such as Parkinsons disease, diabetes or even cure paralysis.
Dolly grew normally and was bred
twice with a ram. She gave birth to perfectly normal lambs.
This technique could be used to create
clones of the very best farm animals. These are worth a lot of money.
This kind of cloning could be used to
help save endangered varieties such as wild asses, by using host mothers of common breeds of the same species.
Success rates are low. Only about 1%
of embryos made this way result in live births. Many die in late pregnancy or soon after birth from abnormalities. Research is now focused on making better selection of good embryos.
Since Dolly, research groups all over
the world have used the technique to make clones of cattle, sheep, mice, goats and pigs. There has been no success with rabbits, cats, monkeys or dogs.
Dolly suffered from age-related
diseases when she was still young for a sheep. She had arthritis when she was five and was put down at six because of a lung disease that wouldnt get better.
