  14. The history of cloned animals Masha the mouse First successfully cloned mammal. Created from an embryo cell in 1986 by Russian scientists. Ombretta the mouflon First ever endangered animal to be cloned. Created by Italian and Scottish scientists in 2000. The clone was created from cells from a ewe found dead at a Sardinian rescue centre. Tetra the Rhesus monkey First ever cloned primate. Scientists split the original cells in an embryo to make identical animals. Created by scientists in Oregon, in the US, in 2000. Prometea the horse First cloned horse and the first to be born from and carried by its cloning mother. Cloned in Italy in 2003.
