  abstract = {{B}ats carry a great diversity of zoonotic viruses with a high-impact on human health and livestock. {S}ince the emergence of new coronaviruses and paramyxoviruses in humans (e.g. {S}evere {A}cute {R}espiratory {S}yndrome {C}oronavirus ({SARS}-{C}o{V}) and {N}ipah virus), numerous studies clearly established that bats can maintain some of these viruses. {I}mproving our understanding on the role of bats in the epidemiology of the pathogens they harbour is necessary to prevent cross-species spill over along the wild/domestic/human gradient. {I}n this study, we screened bat faecal samples for the presence of {C}oronavirus and {P}aramyxovirus in two caves frequently visited by local people to collect manure and/or to hunt bats in {Z}imbabwe. {W}e amplified partial {RNA}-dependent {RNA} polymerase genes of {A}lpha and {B}etacoronavirus together with the partial polymerase gene of {P}aramyxovirus. {I}dentified coronaviruses were related to pathogenic human strains and the paramyxovirus belonged to the recently described {J}eilongvirus genus. {O}ur results highlighted the importance of monitoring virus circulation in wildlife, especially bats, in the context of intense human-wildlife interfaces in order to strengthen prevention measures among local populations and to implement sentinel surveillance in sites with high zoonotic diseases transmission potential.},
