What are milk producing animals called?

What is the problem with cellulose for animals?
Well, I'm not sure there is a really a "problem" with cellulose, but if you're talking about ingestion and digestion, it really depends on what animal you're talking about. Cellulose is a structural polysaccharide (sugar) that is found in the cell walls of plants. It contains beta 1-4 glycosidic linkages between glucose molecules that cannot be broken in the digestive tract of most animals. However, ruminant animals (cows, goats, sheep) have microorganisms in their gut that can break cellulose down using the enzyme cellulase and the cellulose can then be utilized by the animal. So, for most animals, cellulose cannot be broken down and used.

How do you break down cellulose in grass to make it eatable?
Cellulose in grass can be broken down by ruminant animals such as cows, sheep, and goats that have specialized stomachs with microbes that produce enzymes to digest cellulose. The microbes ferment the cellulose into simpler compounds that the animal can absorb and use for energy. Humans, however, cannot digest cellulose as efficiently due to the lack of these specialized enzymes.

goats
Are goats known to kill people?
Aggressive goats, such as one of the Manbearpig species, are know to hurt human beings.
Why can your bodies hydrolyze glycogen and not cellulose?
Humans have enzymes called -amylase in saliva and pancreatic juices that hydrolyze the -1,4-glycosidic bonds of starches, but not the -1,4-glycosidic bonds of cellulose. Thus, humans cannot digest cellulose. Animals such as horses, cows, and goats can obtain glucose from cellulose because their digestive systems contain bacteria that provide enzymes such as cellulase to hydrolyze -1,4-glycosidic bonds
