dolly the sheep :)!

1). Dolly was a ewe (July 5, 1996 – February 14, 2003) that was the first animal to be cloned from an adult someatic cells.
2). she was cloned by Ian Wilmut and Keith Campbell.
3). she lived to be 6 years old.
4). The cell used as the donor for the cloning of Dolly was taken from a mammery gland and the production of a healthy clone therefore proved that a cell taken from a specific body part could recreate a whole individual.
