Understanding the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 (COVD-19) exposure in companion, captive, wild, and farmed animals

Several animal species, including ferrets, hamsters, monkeys, and raccoon dogs, have been shown to be susceptible to experimental infection by the human severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses, such as SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, which were responsible for the 2003 SARS outbreak and the 2019 co...
