AB Viruses  can  cause  benign  or  malignant  tumors  in  many  species  of  animals  (e.g.,  frogs,  fishes,  birds,  and  mammals).  Despite  the  common  occurrence  of  tumor  viruses  in  animals,  only  a  few  viruses  are  associated  with  human  tumors,  and  evidence  that  they  are  truly  the  causative  agents  exists  for  very  few.
