On September 19, 2022, a genetics company in Beijing marked 100 days since it successfully cloned an Arctic wolf, in what it claimed was a world first. Scientists used a beagle dog as the gestational carrier by inserting a 16-year-old Arctic wolf’s cells into one of the female dog’s eggs. The original 16-year-old wolf died of natural causes in August 2021.

Back when cloning was new, the age of the cell used for the cloning affected the quality of cells in the new animal—so even if a new clone looked and grew like a baby, the cells that made them were like an adult animal’s cells and their bodies deteriorated faster like they were dying of old age, even when young. I really hope progress has been made to fix that so this new baby can live a long and happy life ❤

The question is how long it’s life expectancy is. As far as I know cloning is used in South Korea for their deceased dogs but even they had problems with the upkeep of their outer appearance but that’s just the last thing I’ve heard about that topic and that’s been quite a while ago.

A cat and dog travel back in time in a time machine and meet their ancestors.
Cat: "Humans still work for us"
Dog: "Clothed monke will offer you food. Don't fall for it"

Great to see China stepping up in certain areas of virtue and prosperity for the human race. What a graceful act and seemingly honored career path!

China government: “Make babies we need young fresh workers.”

Citizens: “NO.”

China government: “Fine I will do it myself.”

I'm confused though. Is it considered a true clone, or simply a hybrid animal since they used beagle DNA as well?

Disgusting. Messing with the wrong things, we should never touch the nature's job.

Cute wolf puppy playing with its Beagle mama lol. And I would've never thought Beagles were related to arctic wolves. You learn something new every day.
