Fun fact

In France, over a million mice pass through pharmaceutical laboratories every year. These tiny heroes and heroines help scientists develop treatments against cancer, cystic fibrosis and Alzheimer’s disease. For the few lucky enough to escape dissection, associations work to help reintegrate them back into normal life and help families adopt them to offer them a more peaceful retirement.
