According to TMZ, Trakr, a K9 police and search and rescue dog who was the animal who was credited with locating the last human survivor of 9/11, was recently cloned as part of BioArts’ Golden Clone Giveaway.
(GOLDEN CLONE GIVEAWAY??)
Trakr’s owners are being presented today with four perfect (and not at all creepy) clones of Trakr, who sadly died back in April.
To clone Trakr, Dr. Hwang Woo-suk and his team replaced the genes in canine eggs with genes from Trakr, andthen caused them to be stimulated to make them grow into embryos, then put the embryos into dogs who were surrogate mothers.
We’re still way back there on the Golden Clone Giveaway thing.. that doesn’t strike anyone as a touch odd?
