Pet-Clone Sales Spur Call for Ban
Pet-Clone Sales Spur Call for Ban:
Animal-rights activists stunned pet-cloning companies last week by

The American Anti-Vivisection Society (AAVS), a Pennsylvania organization that monitors the treatment of animals in laboratories, worked with California Assemblyman Lloyd Levine to introduce a bill to ban the transport and sale of cloned and genetically modified pets in California.
