SOOAM BRF

Although dog cloning is spreading to many parts of the world, the majority of the cloners are still from the U.S..
The biggest hurdle for most future cloners is the price tag: $100,000 (£63,000). This hefty cost is necessary because many researchers put in months of effort to clone one dog.
But Sooam Biotech is announcing a Dog Cloning Competition in the U.K. We are offering the winner of this competition a unique chance to clone his her beloved dog for FREE.

Criteria:
Sooam Biotech is looking for one person with the most special and inspiring reason for cloning his/her beloved dog.
There are no restrictions on the breed, sex, age, or size of the dog.

Application:
Applicants to the competition should email dogcloninguk@sooam.org describing their relationship with their dog and whythey would like it cloned.
Please include a photograph and short video if possible.

Or the application as a whole can be sent to the following address:
Sooam Biotech Research Foundation
64 Kyungin-ro, Guro-gu, Seoul
