Description

In search of socioeconomically feasible and nutritionally superior sources of foods, humanity has
domesticated some mammalian species and selected and bred them to produce large volumes of milk in excess of the necessary amounts to nourish the animal’s own offspring. This surplus of milk production beyond nourishing the young has become the foundation of the modern dairy industry.

Although the dairy cow has been the predominant domesticated animal species for dairy production in developed countries, the goat, sheep, water buffalo, yak, camel, and mare as well as some other minor mammalian species have been domesticated, kept, and bred for milk production in regions of the world where the difficult environment required special adaptation and for which many of the nonbovine mammals are better suited.


Enjoy!
