What is the protein percentage of sheep milk?

  1. 4.5%

  2. 5.1%

  3. 5.4%

  4. 4.8%

The correct answer is: 5.4%

Sheep milk generally contains a higher protein percentage compared to cow and goat milk. The typical protein content of sheep milk ranges from approximately 5.0% to 6.0%. The value of 5.4% aligns with the average observed in various studies and reports on sheep milk composition. This higher protein content is one reason why sheep milk is often favored for making certain cheeses, as the concentrated proteins contribute to the flavor and texture of the final product. The other options fall below this average range, indicating they don't represent the typical composition of sheep milk accurately.
