Abstract
The commercialization of genetically engineered animals, particularly food animals, may pose a number of legal and regulatory questions that have not been encountered before. In addressing these questions, it is helpful to distinguish between the process and the products of animal genetic engi neering. From a legal standpoint, the process of animal genetic engineering will probably be regulated in much the same manner as other currently used veterinary procedures and it is discussed briefly below.
