Persuasive Essay About Cloning

Cloning may be considered an extremely taboo topic to talk about. This is because of having fear in the unknown. What many people do not understand about the topic of cloning is it is not a perfected science. Cloning has so much potential to do well and help our society if people would just allow it to blossom into more of a perfected science. If people would just allow it to do so, and not base its future off of the unsuccessful experiments that it had it had in its beginning, then we could definitely benefit from it down the line. The benefits that would result from cloning would be advances in the discoveries of the human body, preventing extinction of endangered animals, and decreasing world hunger. In the discoveries in the science of …show more content…

This being said, animals going extinct greatly affect humans since humans because they may not know how to handle a situation that a certain species, birds, have been handling their whole existence. “Cloning is one of several ways of increasing the number of individuals within a population. Clearly, natural breeding is the preferred method for thriving populations; but by definition these are not of conservation concern.” - William V Holt, one of the authors of “Wildlife conservation and reproductive cloning.” This quote greatly defends the stance that is for cloning since it states that there is a need for cloning. Humans need to make sure that they will be set for survival, meaning, keeping animals around that they depend on for that
