When it was realized that Barbra Streisand had her late dog Samantha cloned twice, PETA was not happy about it.

“We all want our beloved dogs to live forever, but while it may sound like a good idea, cloning doesn’t achieve that — instead, it creates a new and different dog who has only the physical characteristics of the original,” PETA president Ingrid Newark said to Page Six.

She added, “Animals’ personalities, quirks, and very ‘essence’ simply cannot be replicated, and when you consider that millions of wonderful adoptable dogs are languishing in animal shelters every year or dying in terrifying ways when abandoned, you realize that cloning adds to the homeless-animal population crisis. And because cloning has a high failure rate, many dogs are caged and tormented for every birth that actually occurs — so that’s not fair to them, despite the best intentions. We feel Barbra’s grief at losing her beloved dog but would also love to have talked her out of cloning.”

Barbra already told Variety that the two cloned dogs have different personalties. “They have different personalities,” she told the publication. “I’m waiting for them to get older so I can see if they have her [Samantha’s] brown eyes and seriousness.”
