Deer mice, the most abundant mammal native to North America, can catch the coronavirus and pass it to other mice in laboratory settings, raising a remote possibility that they could become a reservoir for the pathogen in nature and transmit it to humans, according to two new studies not yet peer-reviewed.The findings also mean that deer mice may be useful to study coronavirus vaccines, antiviral therapies and infections in the laboratory.
Red Fox also help control Lyme Disease carried by the same mice.
