Bovine enteroviruses have been isolated (or
detected by RT-PCR) in many animals and from environmental samples.
BEVs appear to have a wide host range. They have been isolated from
cattle (REFS), water buffalo (Mehrotra, 1973), sheep and goats (Jain
and Batra, 1985; Sharma et al., 1986), African buffalo and
impala (Hamblin et al., 1985). Neutralizing antibodies have
been detected in different species including man, cattle, sheep,
goats, dogs, horses and monkeys (Moscovici et al., 1961;
McFerran, 1962; Yamada, 1965).

In Spain, faeces from cattle, sheep, goats, donkeys, and horses and
water samples were obtained from five areas in the following
provinces: Madrid, Seville, Cáceres,
Teruel and Huelva. Using a sensitive real-time RT-PCR targeted at
the 5' UTR the authors were able to amplify and sequence BEV-like
viruses from concentrated water sources (watering tank, creek water,
swamp water and river water) indicating widespread environmental
contamination. They also demonstrated the presence of BEVs in
cattle, sheep and horses, but not
donkeys.
