Many STDs can be traced back to animals. Maybe even all of them, but I’m not 100% sure. They eventually get transmitted from animals to humans.

HIV, for example, is thought to originate with Chimps.

HIV crossed from chimps to humans in the 1920s in what is now the Democratic Republic of Congo. This was probably as a result of chimps carrying the Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV), a virus closely related to HIV, being hunted and eaten by people living in the area.
