A Korean scientist claimed that he succeeded in cloning a female dog after last year's breakthrough of creating the world's first cloned dog, which was male. An Afghan hound, named Bona, was born on June 18 using cloning technology, said Lee Byeong-chun, a veterinary professor of Seoul National University. Two more of the same breed were born later, he said. DNA tests showed that the three female dogs are clones, he said. "This was a process that must be done to see if a cloned dog has reproduction capabilities," Lee said.
