∙ 11y agoThis depends upon the test being performed. For instance, as commercial dog food companies develop new and improved flavors, their research dogs are basically offered a choice of two foods at mealtime and their choice is recorded. Other than that, they live pretty normal lives for dogs.
Other research may be more invasive, such as surgery (under anesthesia) or testing the effects of a new drug or chemical on the body.

∙ 13y agoDepends on the animal and the test.
As far as non-humans go, there are cases of chimps being used in repeated head-on collision testing, and dogs used to examine the effects of radiation poisoning. There's also vivisection, the process of live dissection.

Investigations are done on any life form of economic interest to the community. This might include animals of an entire ecosystem, such as a bay, or estuary.
Testing done on unnecessarily stressed living things will statistically skew the test results, leading to possibly inaccurate conclusions. (Poor science)
Commercial animal breeders will sell unusable "product" to investigating labs also

∙ 11y agodont worry they normally just use them to test shampoo and stuff also stuff like medicine i am TOTALLY against it but they normally use rats and stuff

Are there animals used for making or testing cosmetics?
Yes, many animal byproducts are used within cosmetics and animals are routinely tested upon - even if a company claims not to support animal testing, they may use research based on animal testing by other companies or be owned by a parent company who use animal testing. Proctor & Gamble are the worst for this, they not only use animal testing but have supported grossly unethical animal testing and outright torment animals - aka Huntington Life Sciences.
Is the government trying to stop Animal testing?
The current laws regarding animal testing are that the animal testing must be carefully reviewed and overseen. There are several laws regulating the use of animals for testing.
Why do you use animal testing?
Animal testing helps to cure diseases and to discover new cures and vaccines for both, animals AND humans. It is totally normal that humans use animals to test on because we use nature for our own health. However, animal testing used for cosmetics is completely cruel and unnecessary.
Is animal testing cheaper than human testing?
yes thats one reason they use animals
Does animal testing mutate the animals?
does animal testing mutate the animalsyes, it mutates the animals genes
Do animals die of animal testing?
Yes some do....depends on what u use on them
The following should be considered when testing animals?
The transportation, care, and use of animals should be in accordance with the Animal.
What does animal testing mean?
animal testing is when scientists use animals to find out how they react with different chemicals. They would be injected into the animal and then they woul see what the animal would do and record what happened.
Do scientist's use endangered animals for animal testing?
There isn't any. To do animal testing, you need quite a lot of animals to get reliable results. What happens to ONE animal, once, might just be random. And if something should be discovered later on, someone might need to go back and repeat the tests. Endangered animals are animals that are rare. Either hard to find, or not many left, or both. Ignoring everything else, it'd simply be hugely impractical to use endangered animals for animal testing.
How does animal testing kill?
One way is in the use of the animals as test subjects in labs/
How does animal testing kill them?

What happens to animals in animal testing?
well if the testing is from animal haters the animal will die but if they are good it will live......
