Which animals in nature have been so far shown to get infected with SARS-CoV-2?
Bats are likely the natural reservoir of SARS-CoV-2. In addition, related coronaviruses have been identified in Malayan pangolins, which are considered as an intermediate host between bats and humans. SARS-CoV-2 replicates poorly in dogs, pigs, chickens, and ducks, but ferrets, cats and Rhesus macaques are permissive to infection.222
