Got Milk?

The Yak is a long haired bovine found in south central Asia, Mongolia, and Russia. As bizzare as this animal is,  what it produces is even more shocking. The milk it makes is not white, but pink!

  3. the milk is high in iron and mixing with the creamy color this actually makes the milk pink

  4. i am pretty sure it is not iron but blood that makes the milk pink and as the calf is weaned the milk turns back to a creamy white color
