A mule called Idaho Gem was trotted out as the world's latest four-legged clone on May 30 2003. He is the first member of the horse family to be successfully replicated with the same genetic technology that produced Dolly the sheep. Since Dolly was born in Edinburgh in 1996 scientists have cloned dozens of mice a kitten called Copycat and several calves and pigs.
