Major Growth Drivers:

Increasing Number of Pet Owners and Emphasis on Animal Health to Propel Growth

The increasing pet adoption is a major factor propelling animal health market growth. Besides this, analysts at Fortune Business Insights™ say, “the rising prevalence of diseases among animals, especially zoonotic diseases, is likely to promote the animal health market growth during the forecast period.” Zoonotic diseases can be transmitted from animals to humans; a few of which include bubonic plague, salmonellosis, anthrax, rabies, and West Nile virus. Besides this, the rise in the number of animal healthcare clinics worldwide will also drive the market.

Additionally, animals work as test subjects for various medication and drug tests. It is important to test drugs on animals attributable to the fact that research on most prolonged and genetic diseases affecting man cannot be approved for testing on human subjects. Animal studies are used for the development of new surgical techniques such as organ transplantations, new drug testing, and also for nutritional research. The fact that animals serve as research subjects for valuable research on long-lasting deteriorating diseases is further propelling the need to maintain the health of these animals.
