They use animals to check if the chemicals used in certain products are safe for the use of humans. So, if the animal reacts in the correct way they'll know if the chemical is safe or not. Sometimes animals are used unnecessairily to test cosmetics and food products. Animal testing is wrong and shouldn't be happening Hope this helps

Animals are kept in small cages while experiments are being performed to keep the animal still. It restrains their movement, so there are fewer injuries.
