The data suggest that use of laboratory animals allowed to add 28 years of life to an average human. So if you would live on average 45 years in the XIX century, now you live closer to 75 years. Significant number of experiments can not be done without using animals. Animal cruelty is a terrile thing. However it is strange that the people who use the medical achievments in the first place are agianst the use of animals. If they fair, they should refuse from literally all medical advantages. Interesting that let say a thousand mice a year is used by several large universities. However people who protest are the same who are eating millions and billions heads of cattle and chickhen. This looks like an outrageous hypocrisy. Unfortunately it is very typical for brain-washed wetern society.

Animal research also has contributed to efforts to help animals, such as in programs to reestablish populations of endangered or threatened species, in designing appropriate living conditions and enhancing the well-being of captive animals, and in developing humane methods of animal control in the wild.
