upon request from the American Angus Association. Contact the

Not in Austrailia. Cloned animals can not enter the food chain.

Not in Austrailia. Cloned animals can not enter the food chain.

Supposedly clones animals can't enter the food chain in Canada either but I don't think they have a tracking system to prevent clones or their offspring from actually being slaughtered!
