    Give me a break on that. We watch videos all the time of different animals cross-nursing. Puppies feeding on momma cat's teats. Kitties nursing momma dog teat's.

    Even humans breastfeeding other mammals.

    That whole "not your mom" smacks of caste purism that doesn't represent reality. It is an adaptive advantage for the whole class mammals to share milk.

    You do realize though, that this is a completely different situation? In one case the milk is given voluntarily to a baby.
