Report Claims Tom Brady’s Dog Lua Lives On Thanks To Science

Former NFL superstar Tom Brady has taken his devotion to pets to an advanced level, announcing on Tuesday that his current dog, Junie, is a clone of his cherished late pet, Lua. This revelation, made alongside an update from a biotechnology firm he supports, ignited a fervent ethical discussion on social media concerning pet ownership, mourning, and genetic engineering.Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl champion, revealed that cloning was achieved using a non-invasive blood sample from Lua, a Pit Bull mix who passed away in December 2022. The procedure was conducted by Dallas-based Colossal Biosciences, a biotech company backed by Brady, known for its innovative genetic technologies, including ambitious de-extinction projects.Brady characterized the cloning as a deeply personal choice stemming from love and loss. He emphasized that Junie represents a “second chance with a clone” and is regarded as “part of our family again.” However, the wider community remains divided on the ethical implications of such decisions, particularly in light of the ongoing animal welfare crisis.
