No, not yet, science has yet to achieve the ability to clone tortoises. As we understand, they intend to embalm Lonesome George, so his DNA may then be lost forever.
Scientists has however, found a hybrid of his type, raising the hope that there may still be living specimens of Lonesome George's type of tortoise on Pinta Island in the Galapagos. The Pinta Island, where Lonesoem Goerge originated, the vegetation was heavily stripped by wild goats introduced by mankind. Now eradicated, the island's orginal vegetation has proliferated. Without proper systematic campaign, it is hard to establish definitively that there are no surviving specimens of Pinta tortoises living on Pinta Island.
