Scientists have created cows that have been genetically modified to produce milk which is healthier for humans.
In two separate breakthroughs, researchers have revealed that they have successfully created a calf whose milk could be drunk by people suffering from lactose intolerance and a second animal whose milk contains high levels of "healthy" fat found in fish.
The cows are part of a growing effort by scientists to make food and drink products from livestock healthier by genetically altering the animals.
The work, however, is likely to inflame the debate about GM foods. Critics of the technology have reacted angrily to the research and questioned the safety of milk from genetically modified animals. Full story...
