This work makes an assessment of wildlife susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 by analyzing the similarities of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) and Transmembrane Protease, Serine 2 (TMPRSS2) —both recognized as receptors and protease for coronavirus spike protein— and the genetic variation of the viral protein spike in the recognition sites. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2) is causing the biggest pandemic 52 of this century, and could potentially infect between 30 to 40% of the world's populations (De 53 Soto et al., 2020) . Due to its high transmission rate and mortality, researches around the world 54 are trying to get some insight about its origin through the analysis of related-virus genes 55 sequences in humans and animals (Lu R et al., 2020) , and looking for Angiotensin-Converting 56 ./cache/cord-291436-cu5o8ipw.txt ./txt/cord-291436-cu5o8ipw.txt
