Mammary gland

Exocrine gland in humans and other mammals

A mammary gland is an exocrine gland that produces milk in mammals, including humans. Mammals get their name from the Latin word mamma, "breast". The mammary glands are arranged in organs such as the breasts in primates (for example, humans and chimpanzees), the udder in ruminants (for example, cows, goats, sheep, and deer), and the dugs of other animals (for example, dogs, cats, rabbits and pigs) to feed young offspring.
