they go through a lot! I used to do Ballet and I always had to have back-ups just in case they would be worn out or start hurting my feet. my guess is definitely probably a little over 15 pairs in a year.
Many dancers use lamb's wool to cushion their toes in pointe shoes. Some dancers use gel toe pads, also. However some do not.
Dancers use pointe shoes to make them look taller, give the thought that they are on their toes, to give their body a more graceful line.
The ballet shoes that professionals use are called pointe shoes. They are shoes made specially for the dancers to dance on their toes. They are hardened with layers of fabric and glue that the dancer has stability. Softer shoes are just ballet slippers and are often made of canvas.
Yes because dancers use gumboots
ballet dancers enable themselves to rotate or 'pirouette' on her toes by the use of very helpful pointe shoes. Pointe shoes are made of a soft material at the heel, but at the 'vamp' (where your toes begin) a slight wooden material is used to make a flat surface on the box or shank of the shoe. This is why ballerinas can rise 'en pointe' as we dancers say

Dancers may use support equipment like poles and ropes. They also use special shoes and clothing designed to make it easy for them to move.

It's not really considered 'using an animal' but we use lambs wool for extra comfort and support for blisters. So it's just the wool of a lamb but not an animal.
Not all dancers use drugs. those who do use them for their own personal reasons and is not related to dancing at all. Raves excluded.
Pole dancers are trained to dance at various gyms. Many gyms have classes that you can use to learn to pole dance. Some learn on their own at the job as well.
Ballet dancers use the barre for many things. Some of these things change as the dancer's level increases. But generally, the barre is used as a helper with balance and position. We also use it when we do certain stretches and to help with alignment.
