  abstract = {{S}everal countries spanning the equatorial forest regions of {A}frica have had outbreaks of {E}bola hemorrhagic fever over the last three decades. {T}his article is an overview of the many published investigations of how {E}bola virus circulates in its natural environment, focusing on the viral reservoir, susceptible animal species, environmental conditions favoring inter-species transmission, and how the infection is transmitted to humans. {M}ajor breakthroughs have been made in recent years but many outstanding questions must be dealt with if we are to prevent human outbreaks by interfering with the viral life cycle.
