Question 28

In conservation efforts to preserve the endangered wild cattle species, the Gaur (Bos gaurus), scientists utilized somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) to clone a male Gaur using a domestic cow (Bos taurus) as an egg donor and a surrogate mother.

Describe the scientific steps involved in this SCNT procedure to successfully produce a live-born cloned Gaur calf from a preserved Gaur skin cell.
