A Japanese "cancer-sniffing" dog named Marine, who is unable to reproduce due to treatment of a disease, will be cloned by a Seoul-based biotechnology company. Apparently the goal is to distribute the clones worldwide to they can be studied and hopefully detect cancer.

Does cloning an animal mean that their unusual talents, that may have been acquired through some undetermined environmental stimulus, may also redevelop in the clone? It will be interesting to see if it does in this case.
