Scientists Clone a Horse
Now that horse-cloning has arrived, it could allow the replication of valuable horses or endangered breeds, said Cesare Galli, director of the Laboratory of Reproductive Technology in Cremona, Italy.

I guess a horse is no longer a horse, of course.

5. I got the horse right here,
and he was cloned last year,
from the Belmont winner
so never fear!

(I say it's Epitaph,
he'll take it by a half,
he was cloned from a Seabiscuit
photograph!)

6. We need bananas, not horses
