Finally, that bats appear as the principle host species across such a large phylogeographic range indicates that the association between lyssaviruses and bats is likely to be the ancestral condition (with a secondary loss of bat transmission in GT3), such that the movement of bats is likely to be responsible for the global dissemination of these viruses [7].
