It is easier to clone humans than sheep

Humans may be easier to clone than sheep and mice because of a single genetic difference

Humans could be technically easier to clone than sheep, cows, pigs and mice because humans possess a genetic benefit that prevents fetal overgrowth, a major obstacle encountered in cloning animals, according to new research by Duke University Medical Center scientists.
