An endangered animal that was created by cloning gave birth to two healthy offspring at a Smithsonian Institution/National Zoo center in Virginia, in what a federal agency called a conservation milestone.
Authorities indicated that techniques used in their work with black-footed ferrets could help preserve other endangered species.
The two ferrets were born in June to a cloned mother at the Smithsonian National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute in Front Royal, Virginia.

I've read that dinosaurs might not qualify as "lizards." Some evidence (which I'm too lazy to look up) that the were warm-blooded. After all, they did become birds.

Agree. That is what I have hear also. Birds are the closest living relatives to dinosaurs.
Anyway, cloning is scary stuff for me.
