WOW!
Out of the blue! Korea clone wolves! Amaaaaaaazing!

A South Korean research team headed by veterinary professor Lee Byeong-cheon of Seoul National University (SNU) has produced the first-ever wolf clones.
In a press conference on March 26 at SNU, Professor Lee said, �The grey wolf is listed as endangered. Our team succeeded in cloning two female gray wolves seventeen months ago and the two are alive and well.�
The paper on the wolf cloning appears in March issue of Cloning and Stemcells, a high-ranking journal on cloning. Prof. Hwang Woo-suk is one of coauthors of the paper. Ian Wilmut is the chief editor of the journal. |

Do you think they bred the wolves to rend and worry future pitch invaders?
These two events cannot be coincidental. |

I read about that and I'm like.....Who really believes anything they do anymore? Plus Dr. Hwang's name is on the research paper that went along with the cloning.
I'm sure it's legit but I am a tad skeptical till they do DNA testing to confirm it. No one is going to take their word for it this time around. |

As far as I know, the first cloned dog (Snuppy) was found to be true though. So who knows...

Lee was a key member of Hwang�s research team, whose purported breakthroughs in creating human stem cells through cloning were found to be fake. But the team�s success in cloning the world�s first dog, Snuppy, was confirmed. |

The university panel ruled that an experiment last year in which Dr Hwang's team claimed to have cloned a dog was genuine.
A three-year-old Afghan hound called Snuppy - short for Seoul National University puppy - was genetically identical to his father according to DNA tests. |

Hmmm, can't quote, but I thought it was found out that Snuppy was not a cloned dog either, just a hidden twin? Dunno for sure though. |

The dog was a clone and I believe he's legit too. The people who he was involved with probably were not. And the media hit him hard too. Pretty sad whether he was for real or not if you think about it. |

Liberal arts majors discussing science?
Hwang cheated but it wasnt about cloning Snuppy. |

South Korea University Investigating Errors Found in Wolf Cloning Paper
http://www.lifenews.com/bio2069.html
The paper Lee wrote on behalf of the team was found to have a mathematical mistake in calculating the success rate of cloning the wolves, according to an AFP report. The paper erroneously raised the success rate making it appear fewer wolf embryos died to produce the final two cloned wolves |
