Which of the following has a higher protein content than buffalo milk?

Sheep milk
Goat milk
Cow milk
Both sheep and cow milk

The correct answer is: Both sheep and cow milk

Sheep milk has a notably higher protein content compared to buffalo milk, typically containing around 6-7% protein, which is significantly more than the 3-4% found in buffalo milk. Cow milk generally has a protein content closer to buffalo milk, around 3.2-3.5%, while goat milk usually falls in a similar range to cow milk. Therefore, considering both sheep and cow milk together makes sense, as sheep milk certainly surpasses buffalo milk in protein content, and while cow milk may not, it also points towards an option that includes sheep milk's higher content, leading to the conclusion that both sheep and cow milk should be considered. This reflects the general comparison of dairy sources, showing how sheep milk stands out while cow milk is included due to its relative proximity in protein content, despite not exceeding that of buffalo milk.
