- sparrish 3y agoWhat are you talking about? It has an entire paragraph explaining why they did the tests in sheep. "The trial was conducted in sheep, because of their similarity to humans in many important respects including cardiac anatomy and physiology. They are also well-established as an animal model to assist with finding ways to combat heart disease that translate to humans."
