Cows are way cool – and so is cloning. Check out these fun facts to find out why!
- A cow produces almost 10 gallons of milk per day – that’s 160 cups!
- Every cell in an animal contains DNA – a molecular “secret code” describing everything about that animal!
- DNA is organized in bundles called chromosomes. Humans have 46 chromosomes. Cows have 60!
- A cloned animal has the exact same DNA as the original animal. It’s like creating an identical twin – only born years later!
- Cows have four stomachs!
- You can lead a cow up a flight of stairs, but not back down – its knees can’t bend that way!
