The cloned animal isn't the only one that suffers.

Pet cloning is getting cheaper — but it's still horrifying

Cruel Practice

Pet cloning results in animals with shorter life spans and many more health problems than non-cloned animals, according to one animal ecology professor.

Pet Cloning Is Getting Cheaper — but It’s Still Horrifying

"All cloned animals have shorter life spans and many more health problems..."

For about $25,000, scientists could recreate the surly feline.

Grumpy Cat is dead. We have the technology to clone her.

Should we stamp out clones of Grumpy Cat, or let her rest in peace? 

"We can now claim that this is the best-preserved Ice Age animal ever found in the world."

Scientists plan to clone extinct horse using 42,000-year-old blood

*Whinnying Intensifies*

Siberian scientists conducted an autopsy of a 42,000-year-old foal of an extinct horse, and found that it's so well-preserved they may be able to clone it.
