Out of curiosity, do you think that cloning animals is right or wrong? If you were a breeder and you had a top of the line pure bred animal that you made a lot of money from, would you clone them to keep the bloodlines?
I am doing a research paper for college on the cloning subject, that's why you will see this subject in different forums on here.
The AQHA has already banned cloned animals from the registry. There is already too much of the same genetics going around. If you take a high ranking stud, you'll see that they are heavily bred to and therefore a lot of horses have inherited not only the good traits, but the bad too, and have just as much a chance of those traits showing in the extreme as the good.
:o First of all I dont mess with pure breeds.. Second of all We Should Not Be Messing with Mother Nature for Our Own Gains..
Maybe I misunderstand your 'research' assignment. But I always thought a 'research' paper had to have authenticated information, studies, analyzing data etc. Seems to me this would be more under the heading 'public opinion/perception' of cloning wouldn't it?
*edit* I had to go look up the actual definition of 'research' to make sure I properly understood the word myself. I guess what I define as 'research' in terms of an assignment is the second definition of the word.
