The simian foamy virus (SFV) is a spumavirus. Its discovery in primates has led to some speculation that HIV may have been spread to the human species in Africa through contact with blood from apes, monkeys, and through handling or consuming bushmeat.About 70–90% of primates born in captivity have SFV. Animals with SFV do not display symptoms or become ill. However, recent research suggests some primates that contract SFV would become predisposed to other viruses.
