Snuwolf, 4, was found dead at South Korea's national zoo. Her identical sister, Snuwolffy, remains healthy. "Snuwolf had been in good condition," said Prof. Shin Nam-sik, a leader of the team...http://www.newser.com/story/68291/worlds-first-cloned-wolf-dies.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagTue, 01 Sep 2009 3:10:36 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/65148/scientists-breed-mice-from-stem-cell-alternative.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagScientists in China have created mice using stem cells made from modified skin cells—hinting at an alternative to embryonic stem cells, the Washington Post reports. Separate teams used viruses to manipulate genes that caused mice skin cells to regress back into induced pluripotent stem cells—which, within a placenta...http://www.newser.com/story/65148/scientists-breed-mice-from-stem-cell-alternative.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagThu, 23 Jul 2009 14:26:01 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/61309/indian-scientists-clone-buffalo.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagThe buffalo has now joined sheep, camels, and wolves among the ranks of the cloned, Discover reports. Scientists at India’s National Dairy Research Institute first cloned a buffalo in February, but it died soon after its birth. They’ve now cloned another: Garima, a 95-pound female. The ability to clone could...http://www.newser.com/story/61309/indian-scientists-clone-buffalo.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagMon, 08 Jun 2009 13:04:34 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/57455/south-koreans-clone-beagles-and-they-glow.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagSouth Korean scientists have cloned a group of four female beagles that glow red under ultraviolet light, the AP reports. The researchers inserted fluorescent genes during the cloning process, an achievement that could lead to advances in human medicine and science. “What’s significant in this work is not the dogs...http://www.newser.com/story/57455/south-koreans-clone-beagles-and-they-glow.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagTue, 28 Apr 2009 15:55:02 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/49570/cloning-brings-extinct-ibex-back-to-life.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagScientists have used frozen skin samples from a Spanish ibex to create the first clone of an extinct species, reports the Telegraph. The ibex, a wild mountain goat native to the Pyrenees, died out in 2000. Scientists were able to extract DNA from preserved cells and implant it in the...http://www.newser.com/story/49570/cloning-brings-extinct-ibex-back-to-life.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagSun, 01 Feb 2009 6:07:49 CSThttp://www.newser.com/story/46785/fidos-clone-just-aint-fido.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagLou Hawthorne's canine cloning business is well on its way—with clients paying upwards of $130,000 to duplicate their pets—but the copies of his own beloved family dog have hardly replaced her. Clones Mira and MissyToo vary in size and color, and Hawthorne's mother—keeper of the original...http://www.newser.com/story/46785/fidos-clone-just-aint-fido.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagThu, 01 Jan 2009 10:43:21 CSThttp://www.newser.com/story/41724/frozen-mice-cloned-this-guy-next.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagJapanese scientists have succeeded in cloning mice frozen as long as 16 years, leading them to predict that the technique could be used to resurrect the likes of woolly mammoths. The researchers found that frozen brain cells worked best, though brain cells haven’t worked when cloning live mice, and the...http://www.newser.com/story/41724/frozen-mice-cloned-this-guy-next.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagTue, 04 Nov 2008 9:20:00 CSThttp://www.newser.com/story/35301/are-cloned-puppies-worth-the-risks.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagCanine cloning looks set to become big business but critics warn that deformed and diseased failures could outnumber the tail-wagging successes, Wired reports. Cloning fails far more often than it succeeds, and dogs are notoriously hard to clone. A Humane Society report earlier this year charged that "serious animal suffering...http://www.newser.com/story/35301/are-cloned-puppies-worth-the-risks.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagWed, 20 Aug 2008 2:50:01 CDThttp://www.newser.com/story/31519/hero-dog-wins-cloning-contest.html?utm_source=syn&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=tagA retired Canadian rescue dog who helped find the last survivor in the rubble of the World Trade Center has been chosen as the world's most clone-worthy dog, the Globe & Mail reports.
