Abstract: A feeder for animals has an enclosure that receives feed material. The enclosure has at least one vertical feed surface that retains the feed material and provides access to animals to the feed material. The vertical feed surface is movable in a horizontal direction. A biasing device is attached to the vertical feed surface. The biasing device moves the vertical feed surface horizontally as the feed material is depleted within the enclosure.

Abstract: An apparatus for restraining ruminant mammals; especially deer. The apparatus includes a "V" shaped open ended chute having opposed sidewalls and a floor. Shoulder pads are secured in opposed relation to the opposed sidewalls adjacent one open end. The shoulder pads engage shoulders of an animal attempting to pass through chute, thereby retarding the animals forward progress. Relative movement of the sidewalls and the floor is effected, thereby suspending the animal in the "V" shaped open ended chute.
