IBD is the result of an internal attack on a Boa constrictor or python by a particular virus known simply as arenavirus, which belongs to the family arenaviridae.
Although some types of arenavirus are known to inflict humans with various disorders, the virus which causes IBD in particular and belongs to the arenavirus genera (of which there are two) reptarenavirus, does not. Members of the other arenavirus genera mammarenavirus, do affect humans and other types of mammals depending on the affliction.
