Scientists in China have created genetically modified cows that produce "human" milk, it has been reported.
They have introduced human genes into dairy cows to produce milk similar to human breast milk, according to a report in The Sunday Telegraph.
The researchers believe that milk from these herds of 300 cows can provide an alternative to human breast milk and formula milk for babies, which is often criticised as being an inferior substitute.
