The history of cloning goes all the way back to when the microscope was invented by Zacharias Jansen. Animals were first cloned by Hans Dreisch in the 1800's. A frog embryo was cloned in Philadelphia in 1951. The first sheep was cloned in 1996 in Scotland, which was named Dolly, after Dolly Parton. It took 277 tries to create Dolly.
