Human-animal breastfeeding
[edit]
- ... that human-animal breastfeeding – women breastfeeding young animals, or human children suckling animals such as goats (pictured) – has been practised throughout history?

- This is exceptionally thorough for a new article. Meets date requirements and is well-past size requirements. Hook is interesting and sourced to American Folk Medicine: A Symposium. Nothing makes me think of "Mother's Day" more than fashion models sucking puppies in calendars, which I've been discussing with my therapist. I'm moving this to the May 13th holding area. ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 20:51, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
- I think it would be great if this could be run with the picture - hopefully the closing DYK volunteer will look kindly on it... Prioryman (talk) 22:33, 4 May 2012 (UTC)
- Mild grammar question, should it be "suckling from"? Doesn't "X suckling Y" imply that Y is receiving milk? Or do I have that backwards? ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 10:43, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
