sipthistea 21,099 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Barbra Streisand has revealed she successfully made two clones of her pet dog after it died last year. The singer and actor told the Hollywood trade publication Variety that cells were taken from the mouth and stomach of her 14-year-old Coton de Tulear dog, Samantha. “They have different personalities,” Streisand said of the puppies, called Miss Scarlett and Miss Violet. “I’m waiting for them to get older so I can see if they have her brown eyes and her seriousness Thoughts? https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2018/feb/28/barbra-streisand-cloned-her-dog-twice-variety Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricardo 7,644 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 what's the point then? also why not better adopt one, there are too many stray dogs out there waiting to be loved Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sipthistea 21,099 Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 I don't think this is right. She could have adopted another dog (There are many dogs up for adoption) instead of investing so much money in this. Plus she will never have her dog back. It's somehow creepy. Where's the limit quite honestly ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same reason you don't see celebrities at the local IKEA haha Purr more, hiss less. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really isn’t if you understand how cloning actually works though it’s not as wild as people think it is, and @sipthistea there are actual limits in most countries, so I’m assuming she had this done in some sketchy place (or company). Considering how much good cloning has done in the realm of medicine and biotechnology, I wouldn’t try to detract from the benefits and overall good that field of science has produced (not saying that you are, just a general statement). As for Miss Streisand... Cloning your dead pets is honestly the dumbest thing imo. Personality is not fully determined by genetics, so of course the dog is going to have completely behavioral patterns. It’s a waste of money and time and really she could’ve looked into adopting other dogs from shelters, etc. instead of wasting perfectly good lab resources for something that is completely unnecessary but oh well.

Easy 4,997 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I hope this clone tech is proven to be safe. i don’t want her dogs diagnosed with some clone diseases or something and suffer. Human’s greed always take a toll on the nature. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that she has cloned her dogs i want them to poop everywhere and be happy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
