This is a list of animals that have been cloned in alphabetical order.
Camel
On April 14, 2009, Dr. Nisar Ahmad Wani, a veterinarian embryologist at the Camel Reproduction Center in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, announced that a cloned camel named Injaz was born.[1]
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 Dizhou inserted Asian carp DNA into a European crucian carp to create the first interspecies clone.[2]
Cats
In December 2001, scientists at Texas A&M University created the first cloned cat, CC (CopyCat).[3] In 2004, the first commercially cloned cat, Little Nicky, was created by Genetic Savings & Clone. Even though CC is an exact copy of his host, they have different personalites. ie CC is shy and timid, his host on the other hand is playful and curious.[4]
Cattle
- First World cloned calf was born on February 7, 1997 on American Breeders Service facilities in Deforest, Wisconsin. Later it was tranferred and kept to Minnesota Zoo Education Center. see ref Science, 15 August 1997: Vol. 277. no. 5328, p. 903 DOI: 10.1126/science.277.5328.903b
- A Holstein heifer named Daisy was cloned from a high-merit cow named Aspen at the University of Connecticut on July 7, 1999. .[5]
- 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"
Jerseys
- PH Jewel - Cyagra Laboratories.
Holsteins
- Budjon JK Elegance - Cyagra Laboratories
- Con-Acres HZ Zita - Cyagra Laboratories
- Aitkenbrae Starbuck Ada - Cyagra Laboratories
- Snow-N-Deniese Dellia - Cyagra Laboratories
- Ragencrest Jed Deborah - Cyagra Laboratories
- Ragencrest Emory Derry - Cyagra Laboratories
- Shoremar S Alicia - Cyagra Laboratories
- Van Dyke Integrity Paradise - Cyagra Laboratories
- Rainyridge Tony Beauty - Cyagra Laboratories
- Smiddiehill Dundee Paradise - unknown
Deer
- Dewey (2003)
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.[6] South Korean scientists recently cloned 'sniffer' dogs. [7]
- BioArts International held a dog cloning contest where people would send in submissions about which dog was the most suited to be cloned. The winner was Trakr, a K-9 police dog who was a 9/11 hero. [8]
Ferret
2009
Frog (tadpole)
1962 by John Gurdon.
The first animal that was artificially cloned seems to be the frog. Desederio Nuez,from the BIT International College, Talibon, was one of the first scientists to have observed the cloned species. Desederio Nuez found out that the frog has relatively the same internal parts as that of human body. He observed the speed of genetic movements of the cloned animal and successfully made the theory of the same name.
Fruit Flies
- (2004)
Goat
- The Middle East's first and the world's fifth cloned goat, 'Hanna', has been successfully born at Royan institute in Isfahan, Iran. The cloned goat was developed in the surrogate uterus of a black Bakhtiari goat for 147 days and was born, Wednesday, at 1:30 a.m. through a cesarean section. She is reported to be in a good health. Hanna, also known as R-CAP-C1, is completely distinguished from other goats because of its white and henna-like color. Iran's first cloned lamb, Royana, was born on Sept. 30, 2006 in Royan institute and was able to survive the post-natal complications common in cloned animals. Iranian researchers are looking to use cloned goats to produce the genetically modified animals required for manufacturing new recombinant medications.(April 2009)

Gaur
- Noah (male, January 2001).,
Horse
- Prometea (female, 2003)
- Paris Texas (male, March 2005)
Mice
- Mice were the first 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.[2]. 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 clones as of 2002.
Mouflon
- An endangered species, the Mouflon was the first to live past infancy. Cloned 2001
Mule
- Idaho Gem (male, May 2003)[9]
- Utah Pioneer (male, June 2003)
- Idaho Star (male, July 2003)
Pig
- 5 Scottish PPL piglets (Millie, Billy, David, Carrel, and Dotcom) (March 2000)
- Xena (female, August 2000)
Rabbit
- In France (March-April, 2003)
Rat
- Ralph (male, 2003)
Rhesus Monkey
Sheep
- From early embryonic cells by Steen Willadsen (1986). Megan and Morag cloned from differentiated embryonic cells in June 1995.
- Dolly (1997) It was made in 1996, but was introduced to the world in 1997.
- Polly and Molly (Transgenic Clones, July 1997)
- Royana (2006) cloned in Royan Research institute in Isfahan, Iran.
- Oyalı (November 21, 2007) cloned in Istanbul University in Istanbul, Turkey [4] [5].
- Zarife (November 28, 2007) cloned in Istanbul University in Istanbul, Turkey [6].
Water Buffalo
Either in China in 2005 or India in 2009, the world's first water buffalo was cloned:

Wolf
- An endangered species of wolf cloned by Korean scientists including the controversial scientist Hwang Woo-Suk
- There are two cloned wolves in a zoo in Korea for public view, they are called Snuwolf and Snuwolffy which are names taken from the university in Korea, Seoul National University.
