Artificially bred animals are no different from naturally conceived ones, experts say.

Chinese scientists have created the world’s first cloned Arctic wolf pup. A photo of an old woman on Monday, September 19, was published by the Global Times.

According to her, the cub, nicknamed Maya, was born at the Sinogene Biotechnology laboratory in Beijing on June 10. She will soon have a sibling.

To create a clone, scientists used somatic cells from the skin of a wild female Arctic wolf, and a beagle dog, a breed with common genetic origins with ancient wolves, which carried and gave birth to a puppy .

According to the general director of the Co’s laboratory, Mi Jidong, artificially bred animals are no different from naturally conceived ones. In particular, they can reproduce.

Researchers are confident that cloning technology can help save endangered species. For this, cells preserved by freezing can be used.

As for Maya, she will soon be sent to the polar park.
