The study of the composition and process for additional feeding and deworming of hares is an important, fundamental and, especially, applicative issue, because some species serve as definitive hosts in the development cycle and as parasitic vectors, being dangerous for both domestic animals and humans. Parasitosis are the most common diseases in wildlife of the hunting fauna, which results with substantial economic losses. The invention relates to the protection of hunting fauna, namely to a composition and a process for additional feeding and deworming of hares. The composition, according to the invention, comprises, in %: oats 30.0-50.0, wheat 4.0-7.0, barley 2.0-4.0, corn 2.0-4.0, sunflower groats 2.0-4.0, soybean groats 2.0-4.0, bentonite 20.0-30.0, molasses 1.0-2.0, dextrin 2.0-3.0, premix containing vitamins, oligoelements, minerals, coccidiostatic and antioxidant 1.0-2.0, and a preparation containing 20% albendazole 1.0-2.0. The process, according to the invention, provides for the administration to hares of said composition, in a dose of 75 g/hare, in winter, twice with an interval of 14 days, in the form of briquettes, placed at a height of 25-40 cm from the soil.

The study of the parasite fauna in wild boars from various natural biotopes of the Republic of Moldova allowed revealing that wild boars have a vast parasitic load, most frequently represented by polyparasitic associations. According to the invention, the supplementary feeding and deworming of the wild boars is envisaged during the cold winter period, coinciding with their reproduction period (December-February) when they face nutritional deficiency and need supplementary feeding. To deworm and compensate physiological needs of the boars during the cold period of the year (December-February) with vitamins, trace elements, and assimilable concentrated minerals will determine a new qualitative effect and allow them to survive, increase their reproductive potential in naturally conditions, and reduce the risk of their capture by predators. To accomplish this need, complementary briquette food is provided for each wild boar in two seasonal installments: December and February, and 1600 g (4 briquettes of 400 g each). A precisely defined dose per specimen in the form of briquettes (4 pieces of 400.0g), a total of 1600.0g/boar/day, has been administered in two halves of 14 days by use of the feeders.
