Dolly's the Cloned Sheep's Arthritis.

Arthur Dawkins,
Astro-physicist

Even before Dolly the sheep became the first mammal to be cloned from an adult cell, in 1997, researchers have known that cloning is difficult.
The birth of Dolly, the first cloned sheep, focused public attention on reproductive cloning, more precisely, somatic cell nuclear transplantation.
Or it could lead to human cloning which most people - including some of the scientists who cloned Dolly the sheep - feel would be an abuse of the research.
