[edit] Carp
Chinese embryologist Tong Dizhou successfully inserted the DNA from a male Asian carp into the egg of a female Asian carp to create the first fish clone in 1963. In 1973 Tong inserted Asian carp DNA into a European crucian carp to create the first interspecies clone.[1]
[edit] Cats
In December 2001, scientists at Texas A&M University created the first cloned cat, CC (Carbon Copy).[2] In 2004, the first commercially cloned cat, Little Nicky, was created by Genetic Savings & Clone.[3]
[edit] Cattle
- A Holstein heifer named Daisy was cloned from a high-merit cow named Aspen at the University of Connecticut on July 7, 1999. .[4]
- Millie and Emma were two female jersey cows cloned at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville in 2001. They were the first cows to be produced using standard cell-culturing techniques.
- Alpha and Beta (males, 2001)
- Pampa the first animal cloned in Argentina by Biosidus (2002)
- Ten more jersey cows were cloned at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. (females, 2002)
- As of 2007, Fighting Cattle is expected to be born at Mexico cloned from indulted bull "Zalamero"

[edit] Deer
- Dewey (2003)
[edit] Dog
- South Korean scientist Hwang Woo-Suk cloned the first dog, an afghan hound named Snuppy. Later in 2005 Hwang Woo-Suk was found to have fabricated evidence in stem cell research projects. This caused some to question the veracity of his other experiments, including Snuppy. In their investigation of Hwang Woo-Suk's publication, however, a team from SNU confirmed that Snuppy was a true clone of Tei, the DNA donor dog.[5] South Korean scientists recently cloned 'sniffer' dogs.

[edit] Mice
- Mice were the later cloned mammals; in 1986, USSR's scientists Chaylakhyan, Veprencev, Sviridova, Nikitin had mice "Masha" cloned. Research was published in the magazine "Biofizika" volume ХХХII, issue 5 of 1987.[1]. However, the cloning was done from an embryo cell, while the sheep Dolly in 1996 was cloned from an adult cell.
- First from adult cells, Cumulina, was born in 1997 at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa in the laboratory of Ryuzo Yanagimachi using the Honolulu technique.
- Over a dozen as of 2002
