Virologists believe other animal species other than bats can be intermediate hosts of the new coronavirus Covid 19. The newer suspect is a raccoon dog or a crawl cat (breeding of raccoon dogs is a huge industry in China). The first transmissions from animals to humans are said to have taken place at an animal market in Wuhan and a conspiracy theory hypothesis is that an accident in a Chinese research laboratory could have caused the global pandemic. Because of their fur, the raccoon dogs are bred commercially.
