As well as the domestic dog, canine distemper virus infection has been found in many species, as detailed in the table below.

Although canine distemper virus is found worldwide, outbreaks in dogs are sporadic due to effective vaccination protocols. However, many other wildlife species may be affected by the virus, and some examples are listed in the table below. Large cats in Tanzania and in some US zoos have also been found to have CDV.
