Outbreaks in western and central Africa have been linked to exposure to
rats, rabbits, squirrels, monkeys, porcupines, and gazelles.
Inhabitants of remote tropical rain forests may become infected from direct contact while capturing, slaughtering, and/or preparing these animals for food; ingestion has also been linked to infection.
Consumption of such so-called "bush meat" is particularly hazardous since the flesh is often undercooked.
Because of the diversity of animals eaten by local inhabitants, conclusions about the relative risk of meat sources are not known with certainty.
Transmission can occur from contact with ill animals or animal reservoirs from Western Africa (eg, prairie dogs, rabbits, rats, mice, squirrels, dormice, monkeys, porcupines, gazelles).
