Honestly, I never tried to milk a cow. I had this weird imagination on how to do it. On the other hand, I was quite laughing when thinking about how Greg Focker described milking a cat in the movie ”Meet the Parents” in 2000. It is one of the funniest movies that I had watched. “Do you still remember the movie?” It was portrayed by Ben Stiller. The movie lines made me so crazy.
Regardless, I think it is possible to milk animals and stored them to a milk bank.
“Do you think it is with the sense to do have milk bank for animals?”

It has to be done in the cowshed so the cow can be tied properly. The leg on your side needs to be tied too so you won't get kicked. Then milk! The squeezing part can be tricky though. The cow will keep on moving if you're doing it wrong. My sister always had a hard time getting the milk out and it wasn't always fun for me too.

Just take a finger and squeeze it and imagine that milk is coming out.
I liked that movie too!

@Shavkat I only milked a cow when I was a kid and so my memory may not be that clear. I think that you have to make sure that your hands are warm, pull a bit and squeeze a bit. Of course I may not have done it right but I did manage to get my milk and so I must have done something right.

I have never milked a cow, but when I was a kid, we lived in a town where some neighbors had cows, and we could buy milk from them.. My grandparents had cows, so my dad used to be shepherd when he was a kid..

Never tried, but seems perfectly natural for food. Would love a cow, except they fart to much and take up a lot of space, not to mention need a lot of food. Fresh milk would be awesome. Milking seems pretty straight forward and do not think I would be bothered one bit about touching or squeezing their nipples.
