The new embryo would then be implanted in the uterus of a pregnant mouse, chimpanzee, or human to gestate until birth. |

But the oocyte can also be transferred to a woman who cannot produce one herself, but will receive this donation and gestate to term. |
Animals which are currently threatened with extinction may be saved by the use of frozen embryos and IVF technology which uses related species to gestate embryos. |
That makes them more like elephant mothers, who give birth to very few babies and have to gestate them for almost two years. |
