might come from a pound, picked up as a stray, or stolen- sad to say

This is not really very true. The majority of animals are purpose-bred by laboraties for use in animal testing, or by specialist breeders. Some animals are still taken from the wild, although it is illegal to use wild-caught primates in Europe for animal testing.

Sometimes they just get strays on the road. They can also be poached or picked up a a pound where they don't do background checks on the people adopting

Most animal testing is performed on mice and rats, which are specifically bred for the experiment. Large animals such as dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep and pigs may either be specifically bred for the experiment or sourced from animal shelters or other places where the animal has no owner and would otherwise be euthanized.

Well it depends what but lots of animals are tested on, like rabbits, monkeys and other mammals. Although it's mostly rats and mice, which are not on animal welfare protection. You can see some horrifying videos on YouTube.
