Yes.
Though I must say I find "clone-ophobia" to be strange.

For me, it is less about fearing something as objecting to it.
The national trend in animal husbandry has veered off course in the past few years. Animals are raised in considerably more appalling conditions than they were 50 years ago, and they have to pump them full of antibiotics to make them survive.
Has anyone called into question the need for cloning of animals for meat? Did cows and chickens lose their manuals for lovin'?
Well, I guess being raised in a box saps your will to live...
It's not about the animals' joy, but rather the unintended consequences of uber-industrialized agriculture.
I'd say the animals' welfare and the safety of our foodchain are connected in a feedback loop. But yeah, corporate agribusiness is a bad thing, "uber" or not. E-coli, anyone?
