List of animals that have been cloned 1 However, the cloning was done from an embryo cell, while the sheep Dolly in 1996 was cloned from an adult cell. 2 The first mouse from adult cells, Cumulina, was born in 1997 at the University of Hawai'i at MÄnoa in the laboratory of Ryuzo Yanagimachi using the Honolulu technique. |
