RNL Bio is charging 150,000 dollars to clone a pitbull terrier for the California woman using tissue from her dead pet named Booger, the Korea Times said.
It said the actual cloning will be conducted by Seoul National University while RNL Bio looks after the business side. Its CEO expects up to 500 orders within a few years from rich pet lovers in the United States and elsewhere.
"There are many people who want to clone their pet dogs in Western countries even at this high price," the CEO, Ra Jeong-Chan, was quoted as saying.
He said Booger's owner had refrigerated its ear tissue. Cells were extracted from this and inserted into ova which were then implanted into eight bitches.
$150,000?? Damn i would just buy another dog.
