As long as the tits aren't used for commercial purposes you don't need a license. Anyway, I doubt that in Europe you could patent any naturally occuring molecules in any kind of milk.

You can patent pretty much anything in Europe.

However, enforcing those patents is a completely different affair.

Maybe some countries' patent offices don't take their job serious, but in general there are loads of things you can patent. For example basically anything naturally occuring is not generally patentable, but you can patent methods for synthesising or extracting naturally occuring things.
