She had that government health care.
She was probably dead for three years before they could get a doc to see her.
It’s funny that we were talking about this very thing during thanksgiving dinner today. Dolly was a big deal back in the day, but you don’t hear people talking about cloning very much today.
Clemson just discover a new use for sheep.
Wool.
The question I raised back when Dolly was rapidly aging, “Where did the soul or consciousness come from that entered as s Dolly?”
It appears that the biological clock unfolds as consciousness ages and develops. At the same time the telomeres get shorter.
If a deceased animal’s soul entered the cloned animal, would the new animal manifest the symptoms the old one died from?
[[Dolly the sheep health fears ‘unfounded’]]
Oh well then, let’s just start cloning everyone- and just clone perfect little mini me’s that we can abort
[fears that cloned animals might develop health problems or age prematurely]
So, how many people are eating cloned animals unawares?
Cloning is against nature. There is a reason for SEXUAL reproduction. Cloning is not sexual reproduction.

Rubbish that sheep only live to be 9 or 10. Our Finnsheep - short-tailed sheep - lived and continued to lamb into early teens. The most likely reason the sheep mentioned had arthritis is that they probably suffered from a retro-virus (CAE)that causes arthritis among other things .
I found a reference I recalled that stated some of the first Tunis sheep imported to the US lived to be 16, but that was inaccurate. That was the age of the ewe when she had her last lamb. https://books.google.com/books?id=U2PTAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA22&lpg=PA22&dq=how+long+did+jefferson+tunis+sheep+live&source=bl&ots=YUTU8z0Xxr&sig=9C-Uo4eR8TtfaNSe3ROqMW6KnUI&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj6j6eHo9fXAhUkm-AKHQ1kCEkQ6AEISjAG#v=onepage&q=how%20long%20did%20jefferson%20tunis%20sheep%20live&f=false
