Last decades, with the destruction of the habitats and therefore with the lack of the available food, many animal species were led to the edge of the extermination. The number of birds of prey was drastically decreased. One way of helping this group of birds was the organisation of feeding. This paper will deal with the results of the feeding in Vrsac Mountains, from the beginning to the present day. The feeding was placed on northern slopes of Lisicja Glava. During first months, 100 kg of food was taken out and according to our knowledge, ravens and buzzards were coming. At the end of the winter of 2008, the sight of white-tailed eagle was caught for the first time. The number of species was increasing over the years. Beside birds, different kinds of mammals visited the feeding. The food was taken out in accordance with the needs and seasons. From May to September, it was taken out one to two times a month and from September to May, four times a month. During 2011, cameras were placed on the feeding. Thanks to that, we now have significantly better information on the activities on the feeding.
