It is widely acknowledged that bats are the animal reservoir of coronavirus 2 of the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of the human coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). It has also long been known that coronaviruses circulate among different animal species. However, much remain to be understood of the epidemiology, the presumed existence of intermediate animal species and current and potential animal routes of SARS-Cov-2 transmission to humans. The recent observational and experimental studies also highlight the role of domestic and farmed animals in the epidemiology of COVID-19. This raises concerns of the potential spread of infection among susceptible animal species, with the risk of evolving into panzootic, and the likely occurrence of anthropozoonoses or reverse zoono...
