The ethical dilemmas of cloning extinct species have been a futile argument that will never have a correct or incorrect answer. There are many different arguments whose viewpoints can help persuade one’s opinion on this matter such as utilitarianism‚ ethical egoism‚ social contract theory‚ Natural Law Theory‚ Divine Command Theory‚ and Kantian Ethics. Each different theory is capable of giving us premises to support or dispute this dilemma of cloning extinct species. For example‚ Vaughn would say

Pros and Cons of Cloning The process of cloning has remained one of the most controversial topics as debates continue about the pros and cons of Cloning. Cloning which is the process of duplicating DNA or living stem cells can be dated back to over 200 years ago. The two most common types of cloning are Therapeutic Cloning and Reproductive Cloning. Therapeutic cloning is a process that specifies the use of cloning stem cells for the treatment of an illness or disability (Ham‚ 2007). Reproductive
