Transcript: Chapter 1 – Introduction / Dairy Cow Breeds
Voice-over: Who would have thought that something that tastes so good is so good for you!
You can’t beat the refreshing taste of milk. It’s all thanks to an amazing animal — the dairy cow. Her milk is made into butter, cheese, yogurt, ice cream and refreshing milk – white and chocolate.
Young boy: Does chocolate milk come from brown cows?
Voice-over: Well, there are brown dairy cows. But the cow’s colour has nothing to do with the colour of her milk.
Young girl: How many different kinds of cows are there?
Voice-over: There are six common breeds of dairy cows in Canada: Holstein, Jersey, Guernsey, Ayrshire, Milking Shorthorn and Brown Swiss.
We’re all familiar with the black and white dairy cow, the Holstein. In fact, 92% of the dairy cows in Canada are Holsteins and there are more than a million of them across the country.
Young girl: That’s awesome!
Young boy: I didn’t know that.
