It also discusses extrinsic drivers which may increase exposure of mammals and humans to avian influenza viruses, thereby stimulating mutation and adaptation to mammals. Such drivers include the ecology of host species such as wildlife, human activities like farming practices and use of natural resources, climatic and environmental factors.
