Composition of Milk from Red and Grey Kangaroos with Particular Reference to Vitamins

Abstract
Analysis of milk from red and gray kangaroos confirmed that the composition of milk from individual mammary glands changes with advancing age of the associated suckled young. Although the proportion of particular components may change, concentration of solids, in particular fats and to a lesser extent protein and casein, increases throughout lactation. The results of analyses to determine the vitamin content of kangaroo milk are presented for the 1st time.
