It is impossible to answer this question. There are thousands of species of animals. What ones are you asking about? How could we know, given that we'd have to know how many animals exist in total (the sum would be staggering) and how many are experimented on by all agencies that do so. And how do you define "experiemented on." Just physical experiments? Just experiments that cause pain or harm? Behaviour examinations? If a person takes their pet to the vet and they try out a new experimental drug, does that count? You could not posit a more complex question, I'm afraid.
Yes and No. Animals are used in pyrogen testing. Rabbits are generally used in pyrogen testing.
Approximately 12 .1 million animals are used a year for testing.

Animal testing is legal because animal testing has been used to cure some of the deadliest ailments. Animals used in testing are also mostly rats and mice, who have safe, comfortable homes.
Doesn't work like that. For animal testing, you need lots of animals. And endangered animals are by definition animals that you can't get lots of. So endangered animals aren't used in animals testing. Animals used in animal testing are species like rats, rabbits, dogs, some species of monkeys. All animals that can be easily bred in captivity. And not at all endangered as a specie.
Statistics show that almost 99.5% of animals in the world are abused/tested on atleast once in their life time. This is shocking especially coming from an animal lover like myself. I am disgusted in the people who would do such a thing to a poor, innocent, helpless animal. Sorry but 90% of the animals are bugs and it his highly unlikely people test on/abuse bugs. And abuse is such a brod term it's hard to relay on.
over 40.000 animals are used each day!! over 40.000 animals are used each day!!
Sadly, yes :( Not as much as other animals, but they are used.
rats and you retard
Painkillers would affect the tested chemical's actions, and would also have unpredictable interactive effects, and therefore cannot be used.

Because it is believed that a human life is more important than an animal's life. People don't think of animals feeling pain, testing on humans seems worse than testing on animals. Most of the products are tested on on humans after they have been tested on animals.
