Hm, I'm wondering if when the answer for 7 was changed from yes to no, that was just a simple mistake or ... pedantry dun dun DUUUUUN. If the answer were milk for instance, then TECHNICALLY, the answer would be no.

If it is not for humans to eat OR drink, then it could still be used by some humans if it was something like bovine insulin. I'm not sure if that can be extracted without killing the animal, but I would assume so.

If it is not for any kind of human consumption, then I'm thinking it could be manure.

Edit: I guess it's not manure then.
