feeding stations

Animal food spots

Feeding stations are designated places where food is provided for animals.

In wildlife management, they're spots where birds or other animals can find reliable food sources: We set up feeding stations throughout the preserve.

The term also applies to locations where livestock receive supplemental feed, or humanitarian contexts where food is distributed to people in crisis areas.
