If you’d like to learn more about bats and zoonotic diseases (viruses that jump from animal to human) I recommend Spillover by David Quammen. I think your question was understandable and people should respond with information rather than downvotes. I think people forget that because something is well known to them, doesn’t mean it’s common knowledge, especially given the amount of conflicting information surrounding covid.
