I heard it is your institute that first cloned an adult mammal? Dolly the sheep in July 1996. M: That’s right. Ever since it was born, Dolly has been the center of attention because its appearance marked the beginning of a new era. W: It’s reported that Dolly gave birth to a lamb in April last year. How are Dolly and the little lamb doing? M: The lamb is called Bonnie. They are both doing well. This has proved that Dolly, a cloned animal, is able to breed normally and produce healthy offspring.
