C Correct answer
Explanation

Swine flu (H1N1) primarily infects pigs, which is why it's called 'swine' flu. The virus originated in pig populations and can spread from pigs to humans. While humans can transmit it to each other, pigs remain the natural reservoir host. Note: 'Buffalow' in option D is misspelled (should be 'Buffalo').
