      I cloned a sheep, does that count? I was interested in making a sheep that had the gene that is responsible for the Scrapie disease (sheep equivalent of Mad Cow disease) deleted. In the future it may be possible to make a cow that has the same gene removed and therefore make cows that will not get Mad Cow disease.
