Animals are considered for use in testing based on the similarity of certain of their systems to humans. Rabbits are generally susceptible to similar allergic reactions of the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Mice and rats are good at learning new behaviors quickly, and their nervous systems are a good simplified model of ours. Chimpanzees share 98% of their DNA with us. Even bananas are around 40% similar to humans.
