However, this total is likely far from accurate. At no time have all laboratories in the U.S. reported their experimental totals. The total of non-reporting facilities has varied from 22 to 128 (out of approximately 1100). The species that are not covered by the Animal Welfare Act (rats, mice, etc.) are not even counted. Therefore, the total above ignores the majority of animals experimented upon in the U.S. The real number of animals experimented on in the U.S. each year is well over 20 million. Additionally, these statistics do not cover animals that are caged in laboratories but are being held for conditioning or breeding. For example, while the USDA reports the use of over 57,000 primates in labs, the actual total is probably more like 120,000.
We do not know the exact number, however it is estimated that roughly 10 million animals die each year from animal testing in the United States. Stated differently, every minute, 219 animals needlessly die in a US lab.
In 2004,(U.S. only) 1,101, 958 animals were tested on, not including the millions of mice and rats tested on each year.
In 2005, the USDA list a total of 1,777,566 animals were tested, again, not including mice and rats. This was a 7 percent increase from the previous year.
About 38.000 have cosmetic tests and about 19.000 die. Usally 2 to 3 weeks after.
Well over 20,000,000 a year.
1,101,958 animals were tested on.
Approximately 12 .1 million animals are used a year for testing.
Millions
60 - 100 million.
At least 250,000 but probably millions.
Each year there is an estimate of 100 million animals so times that by 10 and you've got 1000 million animals dieing from animal testing! That alot of animals :/
60-100 million animals die a year due to animal testing..... :(
About 22 animals die every second in testing labs around the world each second. So 22 x 32,536,000(seconds in a calendar year) = 693,792,000 animals die every year.
millions of lives are saved by animal testing
Animal Abuse; 500 animals die every day and 300 000 animals die a year from animal abuse. It is so sad... STOP ANIMAL CRUELTY!
Animal testing occurs in New Zealand. Here are some paragraphs from other web pages that provide the scope of such testing. In 2008, there were 341,520 animals used for research, testing and teaching - a 38.5% increase of animal testing from the previous year and the highest number used in the last ten years. The majority of animal experiments conducted in New Zealand are aimed to increase the profits and productivity of the agricultural industries. The rest is for commercial and medical purposes. In New Zealand, as in many countries, laboratory animals (mainly rodents) and farm animals (mainly cattle and sheep) are used in research, testing and teaching - commonly referred to as RTT.
In 2000, around 25,500 cats were killed from animal testing.
millions of animals are being kiled each year and mainly for silly things such as make up we take animal testing for granted and we become greedy!!
