Abstract: The invention is a wildlife feeder comprising a support line, a reservoir, a base, a regulator, a spring designed to secure said regulator in said base, a tether attachable to said regulator and a stake such that the stake is installed in the ground to created a taut connection of the wildlife feeder with the ground. The wildlife feeder is wildlife actuated and can be customized to meter feed out to animals in a desired way given the targeted animals to feed and animals to be prevented from actuating the feeder. The spring is coupled with the regulator such that it exerts an upward force on the regulator which abuts it against an annular seat in the base. When an animal exerts force on the feeder the regulator is opened by compression of the spring and feed is metered out. There is also disclosed an optional feed tray that is either unitary with the regulator or attachable to the regulator such that feed that is dispensed lands on the feed tray for eating or dispersing by animals.
