Imagine that you try all your life trying to succeed at something, but it almost always fails. That’s animal cloning. 95% of animal cloning attempts fail. If you don’t know how to think about this then think of this a massive slaughter of animals because they use so many animals as surrogate mothers. All this time they’ve been trying to succeed, but it only happens 5% of the time. What happens to the surrogate mothers where the cloning process failed.

And to clone this cat you’d have to have a surrogate mother that was the same breed or close to the same cat as the one you’re trying to clone. Even cloning a horse is interesting on why they want to clone that and who has the money for that to clone a horse costs
