What remains of Dolly (Photo by Toni Barros) |
Well then,
what’s worse than finding yourself at
the mercy of mad scientists? The answer might
soon be finding two of yourself.
Since 1996,
scientists have cracked the mammal-cloning
code. This began with Dolly the
sheep, and continued on with the cloning
of “dogs, cats, pigs, cows and polo
ponies.” What's next? Dolly the Parton?
This is no
longer a far-fetched notion, being that
Chinese researchers have recently managed
to clone a primate. Two primates, to be exact: female monkeys named Zhong Zhong and Hua Hua.
It might not be long until Zsa Zsa and Eva are also cloned. Many believe that humans are primates too. If so, they are primates with a penchant for playing God.
