In agriculture it concentrates on the reproduction of animals that are genetically valuable and can produce high quality meat and milk. The use of products from cloned animals will mostly depend on their safety and the nutritional value they have to their consumers. In the development of these cloned animals sometimes there are occurrences of development abnormalities and even neonatal death due to abnormal genes. The use of products from these animals has raised questions with some governments preventing their entry into markets where they can be purchased for consumption. Animal cloning is seen as an extension of conventional animal production methods and as such the risks from cloned animals are no more than those from non-cloned animals (Yamaguchi et al 152). Products from these animals have been analyzed and are found to be no different compared to the non- cloned animals. Toxicology reports are still being made to further analyze the safety of these products to ensure they are safe for consumption without having repercussions. Research has been done where rats are feed on a long term basis with meat and milk from cloned animals to find out if there would be any effects on their well being. Results showed that no rats died during the feeding process and no abnormal clinical signs were noticed in regards to their diets. The results could go a
