What are some potential dangers of cloning extinct mammals such as the mammoth?
The cloning of life remains a deeply controversial and vexing issue due to the ethical implications the technology creates. In reference to literally resurrecting extinct species this creates the introduction of new and alien organisms into a biosphere. Other dangers include the humane treatment as cloning cannot assure the organism may suffer through its creation or if their offspring will be viable and healthy.
Why is cloning of mammals controversial?
Cloning of mammals is controversial due to ethical concerns surrounding animal welfare, the potential for suffering in cloned animals, and the implications for biodiversity. Critics argue that cloning can lead to health problems in clones, as seen in cases like Dolly the sheep. Additionally, the prospect of cloning raises moral questions about individuality and the natural processes of reproduction. These concerns are compounded by broader societal implications regarding the manipulation of life and the potential for human cloning.
