Cloning
Dolly, a Finn-Dorset ewe, was the first mammal to have been successfully cloned from an adult somatic cell. Dolly was formed by taking a cell from the udder of her 6-year old biological mother. Dolly's embryo was created by taking the cell and inserting it into a sheep ovum. It took 434 attempts before an embryo was successful. The embryo was then placed inside a female sheep that went through a normal pregnancy. She was cloned at the Roslin Institute in Scotland by British scientists Sir Ian Wilmut and Keith Campbell and lived there from her birth in 1996 until her death in 2003 when she was six. She was born on 5 July 1996 but not announced to the world until 22 February 1997. Her stuffed remains were placed at Edinburgh's Royal Museum, part of the National Museums of Scotland.
Dolly Dalrymple
Dolly Dalrymple was born at the Furneaux Islands, between Victoria and Tasmania, to Woretemoeteyenner (also known as Pung or Margaret), daughter of the chief Mannarlargenna, from Van Diemen's Land, and George Briggs from Bedfordshire, England. Her mother was kidnapped and held as a sex slave by her father, who then sold her. Dolly Dalrymple became the foster child of the surgeon Jacob Mountgarrett (1773–1828), of Port Dalrymple, who had her baptised with the surname Dalrymple and educated her in Western domestic chores.
