Cloning animals seems justifiable to me for preventing extinction or furthering science, but human cloning raises many ethical concerns.

I agree animal cloning could be warranted cautiously for biodiversity. But even that risks playing God unnaturally. Where should we draw lines?

Difficult to determine where the lines should be... Who knows? Perhaps animal cloning is permissible if the overall benefits to species survival outweigh the risks

That's reasonable criteria. Though we must be wary of cloning becoming commercialized or done for vanity alone.

Strict boundaries would be essential. What are your thoughts on cloning humans specifically? To me that seems far more morally questionable.

I fully agree. Human cloning crosses a line by trying to engineer and design human life unnaturally.

Though one could say it allows childless couples to have genetically related children, potentially a last resort in infertility cases

The risks still seem to greatly outweigh any benefits currently and it could lead to a slippery slope of commodifying life.
