Italian scientists have succeeded in creating the world's first horse clone.
Prometea: Pleased to be in human company
The foal, called Prometea, was born 10 weeks ago and appears to be perfectly healthy.
To create Prometea, scientists took a skin cell from an adult mare which was fused with an empty equine egg.
The mare then acted as a surrogate mother for Prometea - so giving birth to a carbon copy of herself.
