Actually, in many countries it is really really hard to be allowed to do a study on a significant amount of animals due to animal rights groups, which have lobbied for committees who decide how many animals are allowed. Most times this number is way too low to do good science (numbers like 16 -- 8 main and 8 control mice, are not uncommon).
