The establishment of AIV animal models may provide a tool for the study on the infection, mutation of avian influenza virus and pathogenesis of the disease. The pathogenicity of H5N1 to mammalian such as cynomolgus macaques, ferrets, mice, rats, gerbils, cats were summarized in current review, which may provide meaningful help for the establishment and study on ideal experiment animal models.
