Bears should just enslave some other animals to produce milk for them. Simple.
Ants do that. I think they enslave aphids
They do! Well, at least certain species do. They groom the aphids to harvest a sweet excretion.
It’s a really neat relationship.
I mean, it’s not just any excretion. It’s a byproduct of sorts of the aphids digestive system.
From wikipedia on “Honeydew (secretion)”:
When their mouthpart penetrates the phloem, the sugary, high-pressure liquid is forced out of the anus of the aphid.

Sweet Jesus.
Sweet Jesus.
Yes, apparently it does taste very sweet.
I’ll see myself out.
