Dr Ian Wilmut, one of the scientists behind the development of Dolly, the first genetically copied sheep, pictured answering questions from the media at Roslin Institute near Edinburgh on the day Dolly was unveiled. Dolly was a female domestic sheep, and the first mammal cloned from an adult somatic cell, using the process of nuclear transfer. On 14 February 2003, Dolly was euthanised because she had a progressive lung disease and severe arthritis.
