TO GO WITH AFP STORY: US-attacks-SKorea-animal "9/11 canine hero to be cloned: California lab". This undated Handout picture recieved July 1, 2008 shows Trakr, a German shepherd with his owner James Symington. The dog that sniffed out survivors from under the rubble of New York's World Trade Center after the 2001 terror strikes is to be cloned, the California-based firm conducting the procedure said. Trakr was selected by Califonia lab BioArts International as the most "clone-worthy" canine in a competition offering an owner a free chance to replicate their pet. BioArts said it would transport a sample of Trakr's DNA to the South Korean lab of its partner, the Sooam Biotech Research Foundation, and the clone could be ready by the end of this year.
