— not including the Bronx Zoo tiger — that we can confirm and all of those animals were being cared for, including the tiger in New York, by people that actively had COVID-19,” Dr. Kratt told PEOPLE of the AVMA’s current understanding of confirmed COVID-19 infections in animals.
The veterinarian added that the amount of coronavirus testing for pets is low, but that the animals who have contracted COVID-19 so far were “being cared for by people that actively had the COVID-19 virus” and were “in an environment where they were more at risk.” “What I’m concerned about is that people are going to think that their pets are going to play a major role in this virus. And at this point, there’s nothing to prove that that’s going to be the case,” he added.
