Animal models, comprising live non-human animals, play a crucial role in exploring and studying human diseases. Their use aims to gain a deeper understanding of diseases while minimizing the additional risk of harm to actual individuals. Animals are typically chosen based on their biological classification, ensuring equivalence to humans, and consequently, their responses to disease or treatment closely mirror the physiological needs of humans. Animal models are frequently employed in the development and testing of drugs intended for the treatment or cure of human diseases.
