Banteng

  • A Javan banteng calf was cloned from frozen cells using a cow as a surrogate, delivered via c-section on April 1, 2003, then hand raised at the San Diego Wild Animal Parks Infant Isolation Unit.[1] It died due to an injury when it was less than seven years old, about half the normal life of a banteng.[2]

Black-footed ferret

Elizabeth Ann, the first cloned black ferret, being weighed on the 18th of February 2021 (at 70 days old)

  • A Holstein heifer named Daisy was cloned by Dr. Xiangzhong (Jerry) Yang using ear skin cells from a high-merit cow named Aspen at the University of Connecticut in 1999, followed by three additional clones, Amy, Betty, and Cathy in 1999.[14]
  • Second Chance, a Brahman bull, was cloned from Chance, a beloved celebrity bull. Second Chance was born in August, 1999 at Texas A&M University.[15][16]
  • In 2000, Texas A&M University cloned a Black Angus bull named 86 Squared, after cells from his donor, Bull 86, had been frozen for 15 years. Both bulls exhibit a natural resistance to brucellosis, tuberculosis, and other diseases which can be transferred in meat.[17][18]
  • In 2001 researchers at Advanced Cell Technology in Worcester, Massachusetts, United States, reported that 24 successfully cloned Holsteins had been monitored from birth to the age of four. All maintained healthy stats comparable to control cattle and reached reproductive maturity at the sound stage.[19][20] Two of these cloned cattle successfully mated, each producing a healthy calf.[20]

  • Sinogene, a Beijing, China-based biotechnology company, was reported in December 2017 to have cloned Apple, a gene-edited dog, named "Longlong". In 2019, the first batch of monotocous cloned police dogs was born.[34][35][36]
  • Argentine president Javier Milei owns five English mastiffs who are clones of his now-deceased dog Conan.[37]

Frog (tadpole)

In 1958, John Gurdon, then at Oxford University, explained that he had successfully cloned a frog. He did this by using intact nuclei from somatic cells from a Xenopus tadpole.[38] This was an important extension of work of Briggs and King in 1952 on transplanting nuclei from embryonic blastula cells.[39]

Fruit flies

Five genetically identical fruit flies were produced at the lab of Dr. Vett Lloyd at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada in 2005.[40]

Gaur

Gaur, a species of wild cattle, was the first endangered species to be cloned. In 2001, at the Trans Ova Genetics in Sioux Center, Iowa, United States, a cloned gaur was born from a surrogate domestic cow mother. However, the calf died within 48 hours.[41]

Goat

Horse

  • In 2003, the world's first cloned horse, Prometea, was born.[46]
  • In 2006, Scamper, an extremely successful barrel racing horse, a gelding, was cloned. The resulting stallion, Clayton, became the first cloned horse to stand at stud in the U.S.[47]
  • In 2007, a renowned show jumper and Thoroughbred, Gem Twist, was cloned by Frank Chapot and his family.[48] In September 2008, Gemini was born and several other clones followed, leading to the development of a breeding line from Gem Twist.
  • In 2010, the first lived equine clone of a Criollo horse was born in Argentina and was the first horse clone produced in Latin America.[49] In the same year a cloned polo horse was sold for $800,000 – the highest known price ever paid for a polo horse.[50]
  • In 2013, the world-famous[51] polo star Adolfo Cambiaso helped his high-handicap team La Dolfina win the Argentine National Open, scoring nine goals in the 16-11 match. Two of those he scored atop a horse named Show Me—a clone, and the first to ride onto the Argentine pitch.[52][53]
  • On 6 August 2020, Kurt was born the world's first successfully cloned Przewalski's horse. In a collaboration between ViaGen, San Diego Zoo Global (SDZG), and Revive & Restore, Kurt was cloned from a cell line of a genetically important stallion that had been cryopreserved at the SDZG Frozen Zoo since 1980.[54]
  • In June 2022, "Zhuang Zhuang" was cloned by the Beijing laboratory Sinogene. He is the first from the "warmblood" group of breeds to be born in China and to be officially approved by the China Horse Industry Association.[55]
