Inside The Cloning Factory That Creates 500 New Animals A Day, Sooam Biotech Reveals
A dog lies unconscious on the operating table, as Woosuk Hwang gently lifts the puppy from its womb. While I watch, one of his researchers, David Kim, tells me about the original – the source of this puppy’s DNA.
He calls it the original, because the nearly born puppy is a clone.
Hwang snips open the amniotic sac and the little fur ball slips out into the world. It’s black, wet – and motionless. An assistant wraps it in a towel, massages it gently – and it starts to yelp. Success!
