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.
