This document discusses the use of animals in toxicology research and toxicity testing. It provides examples of animals that have historically been used, including rats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits, and dogs. It then describes the process of conducting toxicokinetic studies in animals to determine the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of toxic substances. While animal testing has been common, there is a growing push for alternative methods such as in vitro tests and computer simulations to reduce animal use in toxicity research.
