World’s first cloned horse has a foal (the old-fashioned way)

5 05 2008

Prometea, a cloned Haflinger mare, gave birth to Pegaso on March 17; full story here. Interesting that her creator, Professor Cesare Galli, has faced criminal and religious sanctions for his reproductive research. Anyone know what legal grounds Italian authorities would have for seizing a cloned bull?

Amazing!

As a breeder myself, and owner of a well established thoroughbred farm in California, I can relate to their excitement.

I wonder if you are aware of the new Foal to Yearling Halters that are now available here:

One size fits from foal to yearling, and it GROWS with your foal. My foals love them as much as I do.
