which bacteria ia also known as milk bacteria? pls answer me

Chryseobacterium oranimense is the actual bacteria, which is popularly known as Milk Bacteria.

It can grow at cold temperatures and have some secretes enzymes thus spoiling raw milk even when it is refrigerated....

Most enzymes will be denatured at the high temperatures used during pasteurisation, which means they will stop working.

Debates are still going on regarding the benefits and risks of drinking unpasteurised milk.
