A feeder for feeding large wild animals. The feeder has an enclosure for holding feed. A reduced opening toward the bottom of the feeder allows the feed to pass therethrough. The feed enclosure is adapted to cooperate with a feed dispensing apparatus that controls the flow of feed from the reduced opening and is capable of intermittently and selectively dispensing feed by propelling the feed from the reduced opening away from the feeder and within the reach of the animals. A single post supports the feed enclosure above the ground and out of reach of the animals being fed.
