I want to be excited about this but I don’t expect the offspring to carry a lot of genetic diversity. This is highly complicated inbreeding but with even fewer genes than normal.

Possibly as a way to repopulate nearly endangered species that may not have viable females to reproduce normally?
Northern white rhinoceros have only two females left!
To prove the cloned offspring is viable/fertile?
