Dolly made headline news around the world when she was born in 1996. From newspapers, to television, and radio, Dolly fascinated young and old alike as she offered proof that successful cloning of animals can take place.

Cloning Information

Named after Dolly Parton, Dolly was created by Ian Wilmut and Keith Campbell at the Roslin Institute in Scotland. Although her creation was seen by many as the scientific break through of the decade, to Wilmut and Campbell, her real significance "is in the fact that Dolly's creation laid the groundwork for making the best use of transgenic animals-those expressing a specific gene from another species."

Cloning Ethics

Of course the subject of cloning does bring up ethical questions such as the quality and longevity of life. Sheep can normally live up to eleven or twelve years of age. In Dolly's case, she had to be euthanized at the age of six due to advanced lung disease and arthritis.
