- derbOac 5y agoIdk. The parent post shouldn't have been voted down imho. The problem is such a long time has elapsed everything is getting murky. Just to take one example: researchers are finding zoo animals in the US are testing positive for COVID: https://zooatlanta.org/update-on-zoo-atlanta-gorilla-population/ https://zooatlanta.org/update-on-zoo-atlanta-gorilla-populat... https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/bears-baboons-tigers-are-getting-covid-vaccines-at-zoos-across-the-us https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/bears-bab... https://nationalzoo.si.edu/news/update-covid-19-positive-great-cats-smithsonians-national-zoo https://nationalzoo.si.edu/news/update-covid-19-positive-gre... In other words, now SARS-CoV-2 is being passed from humans back to other animals. Who's to say what direction things went in at this point? Wouldn't bats be even more susceptible than, say, lions? I assume you could maybe tease some of this out with molecular phylogenetics but who knows at this point.
