Dolly the sheep, the first mammal cloned from an adult somatic cell, faced several health issues that raised concerns about cloning. She developed Arthritis at a young age and was euthanized at six years old due to progressive lung disease, which some researchers linked to her being created from an adult cell rather than an embryo. These problems sparked debates about the long-term viability and ethical implications of cloning technology. Additionally, her early death raised questions about the aging process in cloned animals, suggesting they might age faster than their naturally conceived counterparts.
