Scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences Institute of Neuroscience have said that this special type of cloned monkey will be used for research and treatment of various genetic defects including cancer, diabetes.

These scientists will be the models of these diseases in the model. Now it is used for research purposes such as guinea pigs.

Earlier, in the late nineties, Scotland's zoologist gave birth to a cloned lamb named Dolly and gave the whole world a glimpse of it. In the case of cloning of Madi Sheep Dolly in Scotland, the same method was used in the case of Zhang Zhong and Hua Hua.

The cloned monkeys are being breast fed with bottles. Like other common monkeys, they are growing naturally. In the next few months, more such monkeys will be borne by cloning, Chinese researchers said.

Meanwhile, many of the zoologists questioned the morality of cloning to give birth to monkeys. They fear that through this the world is nearing the risk of cloning. Because monkeys are very close to humans in terms of genetic formation.
