Starbuck II, a clone of Holstein breeding bull Hanoverhill Starbuck, was born by Caesarean section on 7 September 2000. It was one of the first animals cloned for commercial purposes. [17] [18] In 2000, Texas A&M University cloned a Black Angus bull named 86 Squared, after cells from his donor, Bull 86, had been frozen for 15 years. Both bulls ...
Parthenogenesis occurs naturally in some plants, algae, invertebrate animal species (including nematodes, some tardigrades, water fleas, some scorpions, aphids, some mites, some bees, some Phasmatodea, and parasitic wasps), and a few vertebrates, such as some fish, amphibians, and reptiles. This type of reproduction has been induced ...
Cloning of animals is opposed by animal-groups due to the number of cloned animals that suffer from malformations before they die, and while food from cloned animals has been approved as safe by the US FDA, [105] [106] its use is opposed by groups concerned about food safety. [107] [108]
Cloning animals requires procedures that can cause pain and distress, and there can be high failure and mortality rates.” Being able to produce genetically identical monkeys could be useful ...

Females can produce full clones of themselves through a modification of the normal meiosis process used to produce haploid egg cells for sexual reproduction. The female's germ cells undergo a process of premeiotic genome doubling, or endoreduplication, so that two consecutive division cycles in the process of meiosis result in a diploid, rather than haploid, genome.
A crayfish capable of cloning itself is taking over European countries — and the EU has banned its transport, production, and release, reports NYT.
The Pyrenean ibex, also known as the bouquetin (French) and bucardo (Spanish), is the only animal to have survived de-extinction past birth through cloning.. De-extinction (also known as resurrection biology, or species revivalism) is the process of generating an organism that either resembles or is an extinct species. [1]
