can anyone direct me where i can find pictures of animals breastfeeding
(dogs, cats, rabbits etc.?

Hi Rosellina,
Is this for your talk with your daughters high school class?  Like the great
idea suggested by  Margaret?
I recently did a talk with high school students and discussed different
mammals milks and there composition compared to human milk. For visual aids
I took one of the childrens fluffy rabbits and showed that and talked about
high protein milks for fast growth, a picture  from a nature  magazine of a
fur seal for the high fat milk for blubber and for leaving pup for long
time, an empty carton of milk for cows milk for herd animals etc and then a
baby sling for use by human mother, in which I was carrying by youngest,  as
our milk is genetically made so that it is fed to our offspring very
frequently over the 24 hours as we are a carry species as opposed to a
cache/nest/follow species.
I found that the objects used as visual aids worked better than pictures so
am now looking out for a cute fur seal toy before my next high school talk.
good luck and don't forget to let us know haow it went.
regards Susan
