A wild Arctic wolf was successfully cloned for the first time in the world by a Beijing-based gene firm.
The cloning of the Arctic wolf, also known as the white wolf or polar wolf.
The firm, Sinogene Biotechnology, released a video of Maya, the world's first cloned wild arctic wolf, 100 days after her birth in a Beijing lab.
The cloning of the arctic wolf was accomplished by constructing over 130 new embryos from enucleated oocytes of a female dog and somatic cells of a wild female arctic wolf.
This was followed by the transfer of over 80 embryos to the uteri of seven beagles, of which one was born as a healthy wolf.
