Museum piece

When she dies, Dolly the cloned sheep will be stuffed and exhibited at the
National Museums of Scotland in Edinburgh. Harry Griffin, associate director of
science at the nearby Roslin Institute, where Dolly was created, says the
request came from museum officials. “They are obviously keen for a Scottish
sheep to reside in a Scottish museum for posterity,” he says. The institute,
which expects Dolly to live for another decade, has yet to decide whether to
preserve samples of her tissues for subsequent scientific investigation.
