TheSpike noted:

<<In a speech reported by the official state news agency Xinhua late last
year, Chen Dayuan claimed to be just one step away from cloning giant
pandas. His laboratory, operated by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has
already used the ovum of a rabbit to make a panda embryo, which was
implanted into the uterus of a cat. This was seen as a success, even though
the cat died two months later and the experiment has not been repeated>>

Successor work to this research has produced a 200lb rabbit which hacks up
furballs and climbs bamboo trees
