feeding area
Where animals eat
A feeding area is a place where animals regularly eat or are given food.
The term appears in wildlife management, agriculture, and pet care contexts: The park designated feeding areas for migratory birds.
In ecology, it often describes locations where animals naturally congregate to forage: Lions patrol the edges of the feeding area, waiting for stragglers.
