There are different types of cancer that occur for different reasons: genetic alterations, environmental pollutants, infectious agents, chronic inflammatory diseases, and so on. Although not exactly known all the causes that can trigger it, it has been proven that in many cases its origin can be the same in humans and animals, not only domestic, but also wild, including rhinos, jaguars, deer, elephants, which can develop this disease but because of the conditions where they live, it is difficult to care for them. Here we will review how some animal species in certain parts of the world have some types of cancer, that being in other places or if they were of another species they would not develop it, and we can also understand how there are families of individuals with cancer and others not. As well as the influence of the environment and certain diseases that can lead to this condition.
