Humans getting milk from cows would be an example of commensalism. Commensalism describes a relationship that exists between two organisms in which one organism benefits without harming the other organism.

An example of commensalism is the relationship between barnacles and whales. Barnacles attach themselves to the skin of whales and benefit by getting a free ride through the water and access to nutrients. The whales are not significantly affected by the presence of the barnacles.
