Umm, I think the cloning done in this case isn't like duplicate a certain object on the spot. They would take the DNA of one animal, throw it in a carrier egg (I forget the proper term here), give it some sort of boost to start growing and a duplicate animal is born.
Hence you still need all of the above that you mentioned, except on a grander scale if this gets out of hand.
