The United States government wants to know what the public thinks about its findings on the safety of (36) cloned animals.
    The Food and Drug Administration says meat and milk from clones of adult cattle, pigs and goats are safe to eat. An FDA (37) official called them "as safe to eat as the food we eat every day. "
    And when those clones (38) reproduce sexually, the agency says, their (39) offsprings are safe to eat as well. But research on cloned sheep is limited.  So the FDA (40) proposes that sheep clones not be used for human food.
    The United States this year could become the first country to (41) approve the sale of foods from cloned animals.
    First, however, the public will have ninety days to (42) comment on three proposed documents. On December twenty-eighth the FDA released a long report, called a draft risk (43) assessment, along with two policy documents.
    (44) The agency says it must receive comments by April second. The FDA seemed ready to act several years ago, but an advisory committee called for more research. (45) For now, the government will continue to ask producers to honor a request that they not sell foods from cloned animals. Clones are still rare. They cost a lot and are difficult to produce. (46) Some people think farmers might find it difficult to export products from cloned animals. Critics question the safety. Animal rights activists also have objections.
