Esifundazweni saseTexas, eU.SA, bayanda abantu abenza izilwane ezifuywayo ezifuywayo
Abanikazi bazo basazoba nekhophi yesilwane esifuywayo abazoqhubeka nokusikhulisa ngisho nangemva kokushona kwesokuqala, becaphuna iVoice of America (VOA).
“Ikati lami lokuqala laqanjwa ngokuthi uChai. Ngingamchaza njengesilwane engisithandayo emhlabeni wonke. Angikaze ngibe nobuhlobo obunje nesinye isidalwa esiphilayo empilweni yami njengoba ngike ngaba nalo naleli kati,” kusho uKelly Anderson, umqeqeshi wezilwane. Ubuhlobo bukaKelly nekati lakhe babuqine kangangokuthi wanquma ukulifanisa.
“Ngabhekana nokucindezeleka lapho eseduze kwami. Ikati lisindise impilo yami izikhathi ezingaphezu kwalokho engingazibala. Ngakho kwakunzima kakhulu kimi lapho eshona,” kunezela lona wesifazane. Ezinhlungwini zakhe, uphendukela e-ViaGen Pets & Equine, inkampani yase-US eyenza izilwane ezifuywayo - amakati, izinja namahhashi.
Inqubo yokwenza i-cloning iqala ngokuvakashela ihhovisi likadokotela wezilwane, lapho isampula ye-biopsy ithunyelwa esilwaneni esifuywayo ukuze sihlanganiswe.
“Uma sesilitholile isampula, senza isiko lamaseli. Sisebenzisa amanye amaseli alondoloziwe ukuze sakhe imibungu ehlanganisiwe. Bese betshalwa komama abazalelwe. Futhi ukusuka lapho, ukukhulelwa okuvamile,” kusho uCody Lamb, osebenza nabanikazi abashonelwe.
Inqubo yokwenza ikati likaKelly ithathe iminyaka emine. Kodwa ekugcineni uthole uBell – umlingisi kaChai.
“Ngesikhathi ngithola ucingo lokuthi ngempela bamqambile, ngicabanga ukuthi ngangishaqekile. Kodwa unezimpawu ezihluke kakhulu kanye nobuntu obuhlukile kokwasekuqaleni ongasekho. Ngimthanda kakhulu futhi ufana nekati lami, kodwa ukuxhumana phakathi kwethu akufani. Kodwa angikaze ngikulindele noma ngikufune lokhu,” kusho uKelly Anderson.
"Impendulo esiyitholayo ukuthi isimo sengqondo nobuntu kuyefana, kodwa ama-clones nawo anokuzikhethela okuhlukile," yengeza inkampani. I-Cloning ayishibhile.
U-Kelly wakhokha u-$25,000 eminyakeni eyisithupha edlule, kanti intengo isiphindeke kabili yafinyelela ku-$50,000, kubika iVoice of America (VOA).
Esikhathini esedlule, indlalifa yehhotela u-Paris Hilton wabelane ngokuthi wenza inja yakhe, lapho athola kuyo amakhophi amabili ayo. U-Barbra Streisand uphinde wathola izinja ezimbili ezifuywe ku-Coton de Tulear wakhe amthandayo.
